py.test extension for per-test couchdb databases using couchdbkit

Project description

pytest-couchdbkit

pytest-couchdbkit is a simple pytest extension that manages test databases for your couchdbkit using apps.

In order to use it, you only need to set the ini option couchdbkit_suffix to something fitting your app. Additionally you may use couchdbkit_backend to select the gevent/eventlet backends.

To setup couchapps before running the tests, there is the pytest_couchdbkit_push_app(server, dbname) hook

It can be used to create a pristine database, which is replicated into each test database.

The provided funcarg couchdb will be a freshly flushed database named pytest_ + couchdbkit_suffix, additionally, after each test item, the database will be dumped to tmpdir.join(couchdb.dump)

which is a simple file having entries in the format:

number(\d+) + "\r\n" + number bytes + "\r\n"

entries are:

  • the db info

  • documents

  • raw attachment data following the document

Attachments are ordered by name, so they can be reassigned to their metadata on loading.

The dump format is meant to be human-readable.

Future

  • fs fixtures (like couchapp)

  • code fixtures

  • dump fixtures

  • comaring a db to sets of defined fixtures
