pytest-sorter

A simple plugin to first execute tests that historically failed more

This pytest plugin was generated with cookiecutter along with @hackebrot's cookiecutter-pytest-plugin template.

Description

This plugin will save a history of your tests executions in a file .test_history. For each test it will have how many times it was executed, and how many times it failed.

Using that information it will calculate the percentage of failure of tests, and order them to first execute the higher failure ratio

Requirements

• Python>=3

Installation

You can install "pytest-sorter" via pip from PyPI:

$ pip install pytest-sorter

Usage

After installed, your tests will automatically create and update the .test_history file, and order tests by their failure ratio.

You can tell pytest to ignore this plugin by passing: ` pytest --no-sorted `
