pytestghostinspector 0.4.0

# pytest-ghostinspector
[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/harvard-dce/pytest-ghostinspector.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/harvard-dce/pytest-ghostinspector)
For discovering & executing [Ghost Inspector](https://ghostinspector.com/) tests.
## Features
pytest-ghostinspector is a plugin that leverages the pytest
framework and test runner to execute Ghost Inspector tests
via their REST API. Instead of standard test code, you create
your functional web application tests via the Ghost Inspector
UI and/or test recorder, then specify the suites or individual
tests to execute using a YAML config file or command-line
arguments. The API key and any necessary test variables are
also specified either as command-line arguments or in a
pytest.ini file.
## Requirements

works for python 2.6 - 3.5
A Ghost Inspector account & api key

## Installation
The usual…

$ pip install pytest-ghostinspector

## Usage
This plugin adds several command-line arguments to py.test:
ghostinspector:
--gi_key=GI_KEY Set the value for the Ghost Inspector API key
--gi_start_url=GI_START_URL
Override the starting url value for the Ghost
Inspector tests
--gi_suite=GI_SUITE Id of a Ghost Inspector suite to execute
--gi_test=GI_TEST Id of a Ghost Inspector test to execute
--gi_param=GI_PARAM Querystring param (repeatable) to include in the API
execute request. Example: "--gi_param foo=bar"
### via command line options
Once installed the simplest way to execute your Ghost Inspector tests is via
command-line options to py.test:
$ py.test --gi_key=hjkl1234 --gi_test=asdf0987
Output should look something like:
============================== test session starts =============================
platform linux2 -- Python 2.7.10, pytest-2.8.3, py-1.4.30, pluggy-0.3.1
rootdir: /path/to/cwd, inifile:
plugins: ghostinspector-0.1.0
collected 1 items

. .

============================ 1 passed in 26.34 seconds =========================
### via YAML test files
If you have a large enough collections of tests or suites you can create a
YAML test file containing the ids and the plugin will collect and
execute them:
# gi_test_my_tests.yml

suites:
- id: abcd1234
- id: fdsa9876

tests:
- id: qwer4567
Then point py.test at the YAML file:
$ py.test gi_tests/gi_test_my_tests.yml
### pytest.ini
To avoid having to type common options, like –gi_key, include them in a
pytest.ini file with addopts:
[pytest]
...
addopts =
--gi_key=abcd1234
--gi_param foo=bar
### Collection modes
v0.4.0 introduced the –gi_collect_mode option for controlling how the plugin
deals with test collection. The options are:

“all” - specify GI tests via –gi-test/–gi-suite options, plus standard file system test discovery enabled
“files” - disables GI API collection via –gi-test/–gi-suite
“ids” - disables file system test discovery; only collect tests identified via –gi-test/–gi-suite

The ids mode can be useful in situations where you only wish to use the plugin
to execute a known set of tests and/or suites, and skip any tests that might be found by searching cwd.
By default, if no mode is explicitly passed the inclusion of –gi-test/–gi-suite will trigger ids mode.
