Description:

pytestgoldie 0.1.5

pytest-goldie is a pytest plugin that enables golden testing using pytest framework.
Golden testing is a methodology that compares the output of your code with a pre-recorded output. This package provides a fixture called golden that can be used to update test results and make test comparisons.

Example
First, install the plugin:
$ pip install pytest-goldie
Then, in your test file, use the golden fixture:
def my_function():
return "Hello, world!"

def test_my_function(golden):
output = my_function()
golden.test(output)
The golden.test method takes the output of your function and compares it to the saved output of a previous run. If the update_goldens flag is set, pytest-goldie will update the saved output with the new output.
To run the tests and update goldens, use the following command:
$ pytest --update_goldens
By default, the golden files are stored in a folder named ‘goldens’. You can change the folder name with –goldens_folder flag:
$ pytest --goldens_folder my_goldens
This will set the goldens folder to “my_goldens” instead of the default “goldens”.
