Testing conventions using pytest. Use when writing tests, creating fixtures, or running test suites.
# Testing Standards ## Framework - Use pytest for all tests - Target 80%+ code coverage ## File Organization - Tests in `tests/` directory mirroring `src/` structure - Test files: `test_<module>.py` or `<module>_test.py` - Test functions: `test_<description>` ## Fixtures - Use fixtures for reusable test data - Prefer `scope="function"` unless shared state is needed - Use `conftest.py` for shared fixtures Example: ```python import pytest @pytest.fixture def sample_user(): """Create a sample user for testing.""" return User(name="Test User", email="test@example.com") def test_user_creation(sample_user): assert sample_user.name == "Test User" assert sample_user.email == "test@example.com" ``` ## Parametrization - Use `@pytest.mark.parametrize` for testing multiple inputs - Keep parameter names descriptive Example: ```python @pytest.mark.parametrize("input_val,expected", [ (1, 2), (2, 4), (0, 0), ]) def test_double(input_val, expected): assert double(input_val) == expected ``` ## Assertions - Use plain `assert` statements - Write clear assertion messages for complex checks - Test one concept per test function ## Mocking - Use `pytest-mock` or `unittest.mock` - Mock external dependencies (APIs, databases) - Avoid mocking the code under test ## Commands - Run tests: `pytest` - With coverage: `pytest --cov` - Verbose: `pytest -v` - Single file: `pytest tests/test_specific.py` - Single test: `pytest tests/test_specific.py::test_name`
