unittest-monkey
unittest-monkey is a command-line monkey runner for Python's standard-library
unittest framework. It collects test cases using unittest, randomly selects
test cases with replacement, and runs the selected cases a specified number of
times.
Every execution prints its random seed. Reuse the same target, count, and seed to reproduce the same selection sequence.
Installation
pip install .
Usage
# Discover from the current directory and run 100 random test cases.
unittest-monkey --count 100
# Discover tests under a directory.
unittest-monkey tests/ --count 100
# Load tests from one Python file.
unittest-monkey tests/test_service.py --count 50
# Run a named unittest class or method.
unittest-monkey package.test_service.TestService.test_create --count 20
# Reproduce an earlier selection sequence.
unittest-monkey tests/ --count 100 --seed 1234567890
# Do not stop after the first failure and show each result.
unittest-monkey tests/ --count 100 --continue-on-fail --verbose
Options
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
test_spec |
Optional directory, Python file, or dotted unittest name. When omitted, unittest discovers tests from the current directory. |
--count COUNT |
Required number of random test-case executions. |
--seed SEED |
Optional seed. A random 10-digit seed is generated when absent. |
--continue-on-fail |
Continue after a failure rather than stopping immediately. |
--report-dir DIR |
Report directory. Defaults to ./reports. |
-v, --verbose |
Print each selected test and its outcome. |
-s, --no-capture |
Stream test stdout and stderr instead of capturing it. |
Discovery Behavior
Directory and no-target discovery delegate to unittest.TestLoader.discover,
therefore they retain unittest's native test*.py naming pattern and import
requirements. File targets are loaded directly as Python modules. Named targets
use unittest's dotted-name syntax.
Reports
Each run writes the following files to --report-dir:
report.json: machine-readable seed, summary, selection results, durations, and failure tracebacks.report.html: browser-readable execution report.
