pytest-tytest

Typhoon HIL plugin for pytest

Features

• reference them in pytest.mark.parametrize decorators
• mark tests as Jira+Xray issues
• send test reports directly to Xray using Xray's REST API

Requirements

• pytest 5+
• pytz, tzlocal
• requests 2.23+

Installation

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

$ pip install pytest-tytest

Usage

Credentials for Jira and Xray

Put credentials needed to access Jira and Xray in environment variables or a file.

• XRAY_HOST: Xray URL, defaults to https://xray.cloud.xpand-it.com
• XRAY_CLIENT_ID: Client ID of your Xray API key
• XRAY_CLIENT_SECRET: Client secret of your Xray API key
• JIRA_HOST: Your Jira host, probably https://mycompany.atlassian.net
• JIRA_USER: Your Jira account username, probably your email address
• JIRA_PASSWORD: Your Jira API token, not your password

You can define credentials as environment variables:

export XRAY_CLIENT_ID=...
export XRAY_CLIENT_SECRET=...

Or you can store credentials in a file, for example, /private/secrets:

XRAY_CLIENT_ID=...
XRAY_CLIENT_SECRET=...
...

Don't put the variable values in quotes.

If you use a file to store credentials, you should use the secrets command line parameter:

pytest --secrets=/private/secrets

Test parameters defined in Python modules

Create a test parameter definition file as a Python module, such as this:

# myparams.py
import numpy as np

v_range = [277.0, 278.0]
f_range = np.arange(58, 63, 0.2)
vdc_range = [820.0]

class StayConnected:
    voltage_dip_perc = [22, 45, 85, 95]
    dip_total_time_pu = 0.95

All module attributes will be available at runtime as tytest.runtime_settings.Config.attr_name, for example:

from tytest.runtime_settings import Config as C

@python.mark.parametrize('v_range', C.v_range)
def test_something(v_range):
    pass

Specify which parameter definition file you are using in command line:

pytest --runconfig=myparams.py

Marking tests for Xray reporting

Mark your tests with Jira issue keys, such as this:

@pytest.mark.xray(test_key='PRJ-123')
def test_something():
    pass

Associate your test run with a test plan in Xray using the test plan key:

pytest --xray-plan-key=DEMO-1234

If you want to ignore potential networking errors while submitting test reports to Xray, turn this flag on:

pytest --xray-plan-key=DEMO-1234 --xray-fail-silently=True

Embedding the Allure report link

If you generate an Allure report during a test run, you can embed the link to the report in Xray's test execution issue by using this command line parameter:

pytest allure-url=https://jenkins.mycompany.com/jobs/my_job/123/allure

Command-line parameter summary

pytest invocation now has some additional command line parameters:

--runconfig=RUNCONFIG
                      Specify test config script
--secrets=SECRETS     Full path to secrets file
--xray-plan-key=XRAY_PLAN_KEY
                      Key of the Xray issue that represents the test plan that is being run
--xray-fail-silently=XRAY_FAIL_SILENTLY
                      Ignore Xray communication errors
--allure-url=ALLURE_URL
                      URL pointing to the Allure report

An example of invoking pytest:

pytest --runconfig=myparams.py --secrets=/private/secrets --xray-plan-key=PRJ-321 --xray-fail-silently=True --allure-url=https://jenkins.mycompany.com/jobs/my_job/123/allure
