django-pytest Description

Django test runner to use py.test tests django-pytest is a project that allows you to use py.test as a Django test runner, instead of the default test runner.To use it, add it to your python path and add *django_pytest* to your installed apps. Also set the *TEST_RUNNER = 'django_pytest.test_runner.run_tests'* setting.Also create a conftest.py in your project directory and include:from django_pytest.conftest import pytest_funcarg__client, pytest_funcarg__django_clientYou can also usefrom django_pytest.auth_funcargs import pytest_funcarg__user, pytest_funcarg__groupsto import a user or some groups with users in themNow anywhere in your project, you can create files called *test_< something >.py*. These are standard py.test test files. Use the funcarg *client* in every test to both instantiate a test database that is cleared after each test and to provide you with a django test client object identical to the one used in django's test system. For example:def test_filter(client): response = client.get('/browse/', {'filter': '1'}) assert response.status_code == 200Use *./manage.py test* to run the py.test test runs (ie: it replaces the standard django test runner). You can pass py.test options to the command and they will be forwarded to py.test. (Technically, I haven't got it passing all options, just the most common ones I use).The management command has been set up so that syncdb will use the django core syncdb, even if south is installed. This prevents migrations from running when running unit tests.This project differs from http://github.com/bfirsh/pytest_django in that it provides a django test runner that calls py.test, rather than creating a py.test plugin to test django projects. I believe there is overlapping functionality from the two projects, and also that they can be integrated into a single project, but I have not looked at the feasibility of this yet.
