This plugin contains the fixtures for the DRAGONS Test Suite. At first, these
fixtures lived in conftest.py
files spread all over DRAGONS repository.
Then, we collected all these fixtures and put them into a single PyTest plug-in
that lived within DRAGONS, but using them would require installing DRAGONS.
Now we are splitting up the pytest_dragons
plugin, so you can install it
without installing DRAGONS, making it clearer where are the fixtures and
allowing us to test the source code easily if wanted.
This pytest plugin was generated with Cookiecutter along with @hackebrot's cookiecutter-pytest-plugin template.
All the fixtures and helper functions now live within pytest_dragons. Helper functions are standard Python functions. Fixtures are special PyTest functions that need to be used as arguments for test functions. Most of the fixtures are using by our team tests that run inside NOIRLab/GEMINI private network. Getting access to external contributors is unlikely to happen due to cybersecurity policies and data ownership.
However, you do need to install this plug-in if running any tests for DRAGONS.
