pytest-tape 0.1.0

Description:

pytesttape 0.1.0

Easy assertion with expected results saved to yaml files.

Features

Creates yaml files for expected test results , a.k.a. tape.
Creates separate tape for each test file. Each tape stores results for all tests that have utilised tape fixture.
supports parametrized tests, as long as all parameters can be jsonified.
Hash functions are used to store and identify params.
Expected results are stored as dictionaries in yaml, so that they can be compared using tolerances.



Requirements

python >= 3.6



Installation
You can install “pytest-tape” via pip from PyPI:
$ pip install pytest-tape


Usage
Just use tape fixture in any of the tests and assert dictionary of results with it.
def test_correctness(tape):
result_of_calc = {
'a': [1,2,3], 'b':'Another_Random_Result', 'c': 45.99
}
assert tape == result_of_calc
First time the tests fails, tape writes to yaml file.
Second and all subsequent times you run the test - it compares the result with what is on tape.
