A pytest plugin for Sanic <http://sanic.readthedocs.io/en/latest/>_. It helps you to test your code asynchronously.

This plugin provides:

  • very easy testing with async coroutines
  • common and useful fixtures
  • asynchronous fixture support
  • test_client/sanic_client for Sanic application
  • test_server for Sanic application

You can find out more here:

http://pytest-sanic.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

Releases and change logs can be found here:

Install

.. code::

pip install pytest-sanic

Quick Start

You don't have to load pytest-sanic explicitly. pytest will do it for you.

You can set up a fixture for your app like this:

.. code-block:: python

import pytest
from .app import create_app

@pytest.yield_fixture
def app():
    app = create_app(test_config, **params)
    yield app

This app fixture can then be used from tests:

.. code-block:: python

async def test_sanic_db_find_by_id(app):
    """
    Let's assume that, in db we have,
        {
            "id": "123",
            "name": "Kobe Bryant",
            "team": "Lakers",
        }
    """
    doc = await app.db["players"].find_by_id("123")
    assert doc.name == "Kobe Bryant"
    assert doc.team == "Lakers"

To send requests to your app, you set up a client fixture using the loop_ and sanic_client_ fixtures:

.. code-block:: python

@pytest.fixture
def test_cli(loop, app, sanic_client):
    return loop.run_until_complete(sanic_client(app))

This test_cli fixture can then be used to send requests to your app:

.. code-block:: python

async def test_index(test_cli):
    resp = await test_cli.get('/')
    assert resp.status_code == 200

async def test_player(test_cli):
    resp = await test_cli.get('/player')
    assert resp.status_code == 200

asynchronous fixture

pytest-sanic also supports asynchronous fixtures, just writes them like common pytest fixtures.

.. code-block:: python

@pytest.fixture
async def async_fixture_sleep():
    await asyncio.sleep(0.1)
    return "sleep..."

Fixtures

Some fixtures for easy testing.

loop


``pytest-sanic`` creates an event loop and injects it as a fixture. ``pytest`` will use this event loop to run your ``async tests``.
By default, fixture ``loop`` is an instance of `asyncio.new_event_loop`. But `uvloop` is also an option for you, by simpy passing
``--loop uvloop``. Keep mind to just use one single event loop.


``unused_port``

an unused TCP port on the localhost.

test_server


Creates a TestServer instance by giving a ``Sanic`` application. It's very easy to utilize ``test_server`` to create your `Sanic`
application server for testing.

.. code-block:: python

    @pytest.yield_fixture
    def app():
        app = Sanic("test_sanic_app")

        @app.route("/test_get", methods=['GET'])
        async def test_get(request):
            return response.json({"GET": True})

        yield app

    @pytest.fixture
    def sanic_server(loop, app, test_server):
        return loop.run_until_complete(test_server(app))

You can also very easily override this ``loop`` fixture by creating your own, simply like,

.. code-block:: python

    @pytest.yield_fixture
    def loop():
        loop = MyEventLoop()
        yield loop
        loop.close()

``test_client``

test_client has been deprecated, please use sanic_client instead, check out issue <https://github.com/yunstanford/pytest-sanic/issues/22>_ for more context.

sanic_client


Creates a TestClient instance by giving a ``Sanic`` application. You can simply have a client by using ``sanic_client``, like

.. code-block:: python

    @pytest.yield_fixture
    def app():
        app = Sanic("test_sanic_app")

        @app.route("/test_get", methods=['GET'])
        async def test_get(request):
            return response.json({"GET": True})

        @app.route("/test_post", methods=['POST'])
        async def test_post(request):
            return response.json({"POST": True})

        @app.route("/test_put", methods=['PUT'])
        async def test_put(request):
            return response.json({"PUT": True})

        @app.route("/test_delete", methods=['DELETE'])
        async def test_delete(request):
            return response.json({"DELETE": True})

        @app.route("/test_patch", methods=['PATCH'])
        async def test_patch(request):
            return response.json({"PATCH": True})

        @app.route("/test_options", methods=['OPTIONS'])
        async def test_options(request):
            return response.json({"OPTIONS": True})

        @app.route("/test_head", methods=['HEAD'])
        async def test_head(request):
            return response.json({"HEAD": True})

        @app.websocket("/test_ws")
        async def test_ws(request, ws):
            data = await ws.recv()
            await ws.send(data)

        yield app

    @pytest.fixture
    def test_cli(loop, app, sanic_client):
        return loop.run_until_complete(sanic_client(app, protocol=WebSocketProtocol))

small notes:

``test_cli.ws_connect`` does not work in ``sanic.__version__ <= '0.5.4'``, because of a Sanic bug, but it
has been fixed in master branch. And ``websockets.__version__ >= '4.0'`` has broken websockets in ``sanic.__version__ <= '0.6.0'``, but it has been fixed in `master <https://github.com/channelcat/sanic/commit/bca1e084116335fd939c2ee226070f0428cd5de8>`_.

Tips
----

* `Blueprints Testing <https://github.com/yunstanford/pytest-sanic/issues/3>`_
* ``test_cli.ws_connect`` does not work in ``sanic.__version__ <= '0.5.4'``, because of a Sanic bug, but it has been fixed in master branch.
* `Importing app has loop already running <https://github.com/yunstanford/pytest-sanic/issues/1>`_ when you have `db_init` listeners.
* `Incorrect coverage report <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-cov/issues/117>`_ with ``pytest-cov``, but we can have workarounds for this issue, it's a pytest loading plugin problem essentially.
* Websockets > 4.0 has broken websockets in ``sanic.__version__ <= '0.6.0'``, but it has been fixed in `this commit <https://github.com/channelcat/sanic/commit/bca1e084116335fd939c2ee226070f0428cd5de8>`_
