0.5.0
Latest version
Each time that new code is pushed into your repo, you can have a pytest command automatically run.
$ pytest -h
usage: pytest [options] [file_or_dir] [file_or_dir] [...]
positional arguments:
file_or_dir
general:
-k EXPRESSION only run tests which match the given substring
expression. An expression is a python evaluatable
expression where all names are substring-matched
against test names and their parent classes. Example:
-k 'test_method or test_other' matches all test
functions and classes whose name contains
'test_method' or 'test_other', while -k 'not
test_method' matches those that don't contain
'test_method' in their names. Additionally keywords
are matched to classes and functions containing extra
names in their 'extra_keyword_matches' set, as well as
functions which have names assigned directly to them.
-m MARKEXPR only run tests matching given mark expression.
example: -m 'mark1 and not mark2'.
--markers show markers (builtin, plugin and per-project ones).
-x, --exitfirst exit instantly on first error or failed test.
--maxfail=num exit after first num failures or errors.
--strict marks not registered in configuration file raise
errors.
-c file load configuration from `file` instead of trying to
locate one of the implicit configuration files.
--continue-on-collection-errors
Force test execution even if collection errors occur.
--rootdir=ROOTDIR Define root directory for tests. Can be relative path:
'root_dir', './root_dir', 'root_dir/another_dir/';
absolute path: '/home/user/root_dir'; path with
variables: '$HOME/root_dir'.
--fixtures, --funcargs
show available fixtures, sorted by plugin appearance
(fixtures with leading '_' are only shown with '-v')
--fixtures-per-test show fixtures per test
--import-mode={prepend,append}
prepend/append to sys.path when importing test
modules, default is to prepend.
--pdb start the interactive Python debugger on errors or
KeyboardInterrupt.
--pdbcls=modulename:classname
start a custom interactive Python debugger on errors.
For example:
--pdbcls=IPython.terminal.debugger:TerminalPdb
--trace Immediately break when running each test.
--capture=method per-test capturing method: one of fd|sys|no.
-s shortcut for --capture=no.
--runxfail run tests even if they are marked xfail
--lf, --last-failed rerun only the tests that failed at the last run (or
all if none failed)
--ff, --failed-first run all tests but run the last failures first. This
may re-order tests and thus lead to repeated fixture
setup/teardown
--nf, --new-first run tests from new files first, then the rest of the
tests sorted by file mtime
--cache-show show cache contents, don't perform collection or tests
--cache-clear remove all cache contents at start of test run.
--lfnf={all,none}, --last-failed-no-failures={all,none}
change the behavior when no test failed in the last
run or no information about the last failures was
found in the cache
--sw, --stepwise exit on test fail and continue from last failing test
next time
--stepwise-skip ignore the first failing test but stop on the next
failing test
reporting:
-v, --verbose increase verbosity.
-q, --quiet decrease verbosity.
--verbosity=VERBOSE set verbosity
-r chars show extra test summary info as specified by chars
(f)ailed, (E)error, (s)skipped, (x)failed, (X)passed,
(p)passed, (P)passed with output, (a)all except pP.
Warnings are displayed at all times except when
--disable-warnings is set
--disable-warnings, --disable-pytest-warnings
disable warnings summary
-l, --showlocals show locals in tracebacks (disabled by default).
--tb=style traceback print mode (auto/long/short/line/native/no).
--show-capture={no,stdout,stderr,log,all}
Controls how captured stdout/stderr/log is shown on
failed tests. Default is 'all'.
--full-trace don't cut any tracebacks (default is to cut).
--color=color color terminal output (yes/no/auto).
--durations=N show N slowest setup/test durations (N=0 for all).
--pastebin=mode send failed|all info to bpaste.net pastebin service.
--junit-xml=path create junit-xml style report file at given path.
--junit-prefix=str prepend prefix to classnames in junit-xml output
--result-log=path DEPRECATED path for machine-readable result log.
collection:
--collect-only only collect tests, don't execute them.
--pyargs try to interpret all arguments as python packages.
--ignore=path ignore path during collection (multi-allowed).
--deselect=nodeid_prefix
deselect item during collection (multi-allowed).
--confcutdir=dir only load conftest.py's relative to specified dir.
--noconftest Don't load any conftest.py files.
--keep-duplicates Keep duplicate tests.
--collect-in-virtualenv
Don't ignore tests in a local virtualenv directory
--doctest-modules run doctests in all .py modules
--doctest-report={none,cdiff,ndiff,udiff,only_first_failure}
choose another output format for diffs on doctest
failure
--doctest-glob=pat doctests file matching pattern, default: test*.txt
--doctest-ignore-import-errors
ignore doctest ImportErrors
--doctest-continue-on-failure
for a given doctest, continue to run after the first
failure
test session debugging and configuration:
--basetemp=dir base temporary directory for this test run.(warning:
this directory is removed if it exists)
--version display pytest lib version and import information.
-h, --help show help message and configuration info
-p name early-load given plugin (multi-allowed). To avoid
loading of plugins, use the `no:` prefix, e.g.
`no:doctest`.
--trace-config trace considerations of conftest.py files.
--debug store internal tracing debug information in
'pytestdebug.log'.
-o OVERRIDE_INI, --override-ini=OVERRIDE_INI
override ini option with "option=value" style, e.g.
`-o xfail_strict=True -o cache_dir=cache`.
--assert=MODE Control assertion debugging tools. 'plain' performs no
assertion debugging. 'rewrite' (the default) rewrites
assert statements in test modules on import to provide
assert expression information.
--setup-only only setup fixtures, do not execute tests.
--setup-show show setup of fixtures while executing tests.
--setup-plan show what fixtures and tests would be executed but
don't execute anything.
pytest-warnings:
-W PYTHONWARNINGS, --pythonwarnings=PYTHONWARNINGS
set which warnings to report, see -W option of python
itself.

--no-print-logs disable printing caught logs on failed tests.
