GitHub - pytest-dev/pytest-mimesis: Mimesis integration with the pytest test runner. This plugin provider useful fixtures based on providers from Mimesis. (original) (raw)

⛔️ DEPRECATED

This repository is now deprecated. We have integrated pytest-mimesis into mimesis itself, and there is no longer a need to use a separate package. Refer to the Integration with Pytest section for more details.

pytest-mimesis

pytest-mimesis is a pytest plugin that provides pytest fixtures for Mimesis providers. This allows you to quickly and easily use randomized, dummy data as part of your test suite.

Installation

pip install pytest-mimesis

Examples

Using the personal provider as part of a test.

your_module/init.py

def validate_email(email): # code that validates an e-mail address return True

And your test file:

tests/test_email.py

from your_module import validate_email

def test_validate_email(mimesis): assert validate_email(mimesis('email'))

You can also specify locales:

@pytest.mark.parameterize('mimesis_locale', ['de']) # use German locale def test_create_user(mimesis): assert create_user(name=mimesis('full_name'))

@pytest.mark.parameterize('mimesis_locale', ['de', 'en', 'jp']) # test multiple locales def test_add_phone(user, mimesis): assert user.add_phone_number(name=mimesis('full_name'))

Fixtures

We provide two public fixtures: mimesis_locale and mimesis. While mimesis_locale is just a string (like: en, ru),mimesis is an instance of mimesis.schema.Field.

We use caching of mimesis instances for different locales for the whole test session, so creating new instances is cheap.
