Description:
k5test 0.10.4
k5test is a library for setting up self-contained Kerberos 5 environments,
and running Python unit tests inside those environments. It is based on
the file of the same name found alongside the MIT Kerberos 5 unit tests.
Using k5test to set up a Kerberos 5 deployment
k5test can be used to set up a self-contained MIT krb5 or Heimdal
environment. This is useful for testing applications without having to
manipulate existing Kerberos realms, or having to set up a full Kerberos
deployment by hand.
To set up a realm, use the k5test.K5Realm class. The constructor accepts
several useful arguments for controlling which parts get set up; refer to the
inline documentation for more information.
Using k5test to run unit tests
Instead of having test cases inherit from unittest.TestCase, inherit from
k5test.KerberosTestCase, which will automatically set up a Kerberos 5
environment, before the test case, and tear it down afterwards.
Additionally, several decorators are defined. the
k5test.gssapi_extension_test(extension_name, human_readable_name) decorator
(which requires python-gssapi) allows you to skip tests with installations
that don’t support a particular GSSAPI extension. The the
k5test.krb_minversion_test(target_version, problem_name) decorator allows
you to skip tests when running a version of krb5 less that the required
version. The k5test.krb_plugin_test(plugin_type, plugin_name) decorator
allows you to skip tests for installations that don’t have a particular plugin
installed.
