pytest tips and tricks for a better testsuite

Setup instructions

  • We'll be using pytest on the commandline for the training.
  • If you use PyCharm:
    • Open the code/ folder as a project
    • Tell it to install requirements.txt
    • Open a terminal inside PyCharm and make sure things work by running pytest --version, you should see 7.4 ideally (7.0+ is ok)
  • Manual setup:
    • Create a virtualenv and activate it (or substitute tool paths below)
    • pip install -r code/requirements.txt
  • Check everything works:

    • Check pytest --version, you should see 7.4 ideally (7.0+ is ok)
  • In case of trouble/questions, please feel free to ask! Any of these will work fine:
