0.8.2: pytest is failing in `test/test_contrib/test_github_wiki.py::TestGithubWiki::test_parse` unit and `DeprecationWarning` warnings

Closed this issue · 5 comments

I'm trying to package your module as an rpm package. So I'm using the typical PEP517 based build, install and test cycle used on building packages from non-root account.

  • python3 -sBm build -w --no-isolation
  • because I'm calling build with --no-isolation I'm using during all processes only locally installed modules
  • install .whl file in </install/prefix>
  • run pytest with PYTHONPATH pointing to sitearch and sitelib inside </install/prefix>

Here is pytest output:

+ PYTHONPATH=/home/tkloczko/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/python-mistletoe-0.8.2-2.fc35.x86_64/usr/lib64/python3.8/site-packages:/home/tkloczko/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/python-mistletoe-0.8.2-2.fc35.x86_64/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages

@kloczek, thanks for you report.

I have checked and the fact is that the GithubWiki test fails even for older versions of mistletoe. The reason why we haven't noticed this so far is that we use py -m unittest (which can be seen in the "makefile" of this project) instead of the more-attractive py -m pytest here. And while pytest is generally able to run the unittest tests, this one fails for some reason. I guess it might be due to different tests execution order, or due to specific mocking approach in this test method, or maybe both - help in investigation is welcome. It looks like the mock of RawText gets created, yet the original class gets used within the test...

Regarding deprecation warnings on invalid escape sequences, this seems to be an unrelated problem which can be fixed easily, so I think I can do that soon.

Note: Regarding reproduction of this issue, it looks like simply cloning mistletoe from GitHub and running the python3 -m pytest command is sufficient.

The reason why we haven't noticed this so far is that we use py -m unittest (which can be seen in the "makefile" of this project) instead of the more-attractive py -m pytest here.

BTW unittest or pytest never should be used as python -m foo because when module is used that way pythons automatically adds current directory to os.path. This why there are pytest and unittest scripts which internally iimports those modules and executes the test suite framework code.

@kloczek, OK, yet I can't see what the exact problem can be when calling python -m foo in this project. According to the latest pytest docs, it is a supported way:

This is almost equivalent to invoking the command line script pytest [...] directly, except that calling via python will also add the current directory to sys.path.


Anyway, if some "Python testing guru" could tell why the test GithubWiki fails when run via pytest, it would be great, even though I guess it is not of that high priority...

You can ask on pytest discussin forum https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/discussions

Fixed by #153, merged into master.
