使用pytest的Python测试策略,包括TDD方法、夹具、模拟、参数化和覆盖率要求。

Instructions onlySoftware Development
AI-generated overview

Guidance on Python testing with pytest, covering TDD, fixtures, mocking, parametrization and coverage.

What it does
This skill provides a reference guide for testing Python applications with pytest. It documents the TDD red-green-refactor cycle, assertion styles, fixtures and their scopes, parametrization, markers, mocking and patching, async tests, exception tests, file and temporary-path tests, and test organization. It also includes configuration examples for pytest.ini and pyproject.toml, common command-line invocations, and a quick-reference table of patterns.
When to use it
Use it when writing new Python code test-first, designing a test suite, reviewing test coverage, or setting up testing infrastructure for a Python project. It is aimed at developers who want concrete pytest patterns and conventions rather than a general introduction to programming.
Requirements
Instructions only; no scripts are shipped. Following the examples assumes a Python environment with pytest installed, plus optional packages such as pytest-cov for coverage and pytest-asyncio for async tests. Some examples reference external services or database backends, but the skill itself requires no credentials or network access.

Python 测试模式

使用 pytest、TDD 方法论和最佳实践的 Python 应用程序全面测试策略。

何时激活

  • 编写新的 Python 代码(遵循 TDD:红、绿、重构)
  • 为 Python 项目设计测试套件
  • 审查 Python 测试覆盖率
  • 设置测试基础设施

核心测试理念

测试驱动开发 (TDD)

始终遵循 TDD 循环:

  1. 红:为期望的行为编写一个失败的测试
  2. 绿:编写最少的代码使测试通过
  3. 重构:在保持测试通过的同时改进代码
python
# Step 1: Write failing test (RED)def test_add_numbers():    result = add(2, 3)    assert result == 5
# Step 2: Write minimal implementation (GREEN)def add(a, b):    return a + b
# Step 3: Refactor if needed (REFACTOR)

覆盖率要求

  • 目标:80%+ 代码覆盖率
  • 关键路径:需要 100% 覆盖率
  • 使用 pytest --cov 来测量覆盖率
bash
pytest --cov=mypackage --cov-report=term-missing --cov-report=html

pytest 基础

基本测试结构

python
import pytest
def test_addition():    """Test basic addition."""    assert 2 + 2 == 4
def test_string_uppercase():    """Test string uppercasing."""    text = "hello"    assert text.upper() == "HELLO"
def test_list_append():    """Test list append."""    items = [1, 2, 3]    items.append(4)    assert 4 in items    assert len(items) == 4

断言

python
# Equalityassert result == expected
# Inequalityassert result != unexpected
# Truthinessassert result  # Truthyassert not result  # Falsyassert result is True  # Exactly Trueassert result is False  # Exactly Falseassert result is None  # Exactly None
# Membershipassert item in collectionassert item not in collection
# Comparisonsassert result > 0assert 0 <= result <= 100
# Type checkingassert isinstance(result, str)
# Exception testing (preferred approach)with pytest.raises(ValueError):    raise ValueError("error message")
# Check exception messagewith pytest.raises(ValueError, match="invalid input"):    raise ValueError("invalid input provided")
# Check exception attributeswith pytest.raises(ValueError) as exc_info:    raise ValueError("error message")assert str(exc_info.value) == "error message"

夹具

基本夹具使用

python
import pytest
@pytest.fixturedef sample_data():    """Fixture providing sample data."""    return {"name": "Alice", "age": 30}
def test_sample_data(sample_data):    """Test using the fixture."""    assert sample_data["name"] == "Alice"    assert sample_data["age"] == 30

带设置/拆卸的夹具

python
@pytest.fixturedef database():    """Fixture with setup and teardown."""    # Setup    db = Database(":memory:")    db.create_tables()    db.insert_test_data()
    yield db  # Provide to test
    # Teardown    db.close()
def test_database_query(database):    """Test database operations."""    result = database.query("SELECT * FROM users")    assert len(result) > 0

夹具作用域

python
# Function scope (default) - runs for each test@pytest.fixturedef temp_file():    with open("temp.txt", "w") as f:        yield f    os.remove("temp.txt")
# Module scope - runs once per module@pytest.fixture(scope="module")def module_db():    db = Database(":memory:")    db.create_tables()    yield db    db.close()
# Session scope - runs once per test session@pytest.fixture(scope="session")def shared_resource():    resource = ExpensiveResource()    yield resource    resource.cleanup()

带参数的夹具

python
@pytest.fixture(params=[1, 2, 3])def number(request):    """Parameterized fixture."""    return request.param
def test_numbers(number):    """Test runs 3 times, once for each parameter."""    assert number > 0

使用多个夹具

python
@pytest.fixturedef user():    return User(id=1, name="Alice")
@pytest.fixturedef admin():    return User(id=2, name="Admin", role="admin")
def test_user_admin_interaction(user, admin):    """Test using multiple fixtures."""    assert admin.can_manage(user)

自动使用夹具

python
@pytest.fixture(autouse=True)def reset_config():    """Automatically runs before every test."""    Config.reset()    yield    Config.cleanup()
def test_without_fixture_call():    # reset_config runs automatically    assert Config.get_setting("debug") is False

使用 Conftest.py 共享夹具

python
# tests/conftest.pyimport pytest
@pytest.fixturedef client():    """Shared fixture for all tests."""    app = create_app(testing=True)    with app.test_client() as client:        yield client
@pytest.fixturedef auth_headers(client):    """Generate auth headers for API testing."""    response = client.post("/api/login", json={        "username": "test",        "password": "test"    })    token = response.json["token"]    return {"Authorization": f"Bearer {token}"}

参数化

基本参数化

python
@pytest.mark.parametrize("input,expected", [    ("hello", "HELLO"),    ("world", "WORLD"),    ("PyThOn", "PYTHON"),])def test_uppercase(input, expected):    """Test runs 3 times with different inputs."""    assert input.upper() == expected

多参数

python
@pytest.mark.parametrize("a,b,expected", [    (2, 3, 5),    (0, 0, 0),    (-1, 1, 0),    (100, 200, 300),])def test_add(a, b, expected):    """Test addition with multiple inputs."""    assert add(a, b) == expected

带 ID 的参数化

python
@pytest.mark.parametrize("input,expected", [    ("[email protected]", True),    ("invalid", False),    ("@no-domain.com", False),], ids=["valid-email", "missing-at", "missing-domain"])def test_email_validation(input, expected):    """Test email validation with readable test IDs."""    assert is_valid_email(input) is expected

参数化夹具

python
@pytest.fixture(params=["sqlite", "postgresql", "mysql"])def db(request):    """Test against multiple database backends."""    if request.param == "sqlite":        return Database(":memory:")    elif request.param == "postgresql":        return Database("postgresql://localhost/test")    elif request.param == "mysql":        return Database("mysql://localhost/test")
def test_database_operations(db):    """Test runs 3 times, once for each database."""    result = db.query("SELECT 1")    assert result is not None

标记器和测试选择

自定义标记器

python
# Mark slow tests@pytest.mark.slowdef test_slow_operation():    time.sleep(5)
# Mark integration tests@pytest.mark.integrationdef test_api_integration():    response = requests.get("https://api.example.com")    assert response.status_code == 200
# Mark unit tests@pytest.mark.unitdef test_unit_logic():    assert calculate(2, 3) == 5

运行特定测试

bash
# Run only fast testspytest -m "not slow"
# Run only integration testspytest -m integration
# Run integration or slow testspytest -m "integration or slow"
# Run tests marked as unit but not slowpytest -m "unit and not slow"

在 pytest.ini 中配置标记器

ini
[pytest]markers =    slow: marks tests as slow    integration: marks tests as integration tests    unit: marks tests as unit tests    django: marks tests as requiring Django

模拟和补丁

模拟函数

python
from unittest.mock import patch, Mock
@patch("mypackage.external_api_call")def test_with_mock(api_call_mock):    """Test with mocked external API."""    api_call_mock.return_value = {"status": "success"}
    result = my_function()
    api_call_mock.assert_called_once()    assert result["status"] == "success"

模拟返回值

python
@patch("mypackage.Database.connect")def test_database_connection(connect_mock):    """Test with mocked database connection."""    connect_mock.return_value = MockConnection()
    db = Database()    db.connect()
    connect_mock.assert_called_once_with("localhost")

模拟异常

python
@patch("mypackage.api_call")def test_api_error_handling(api_call_mock):    """Test error handling with mocked exception."""    api_call_mock.side_effect = ConnectionError("Network error")
    with pytest.raises(ConnectionError):        api_call()
    api_call_mock.assert_called_once()

模拟上下文管理器

python
@patch("builtins.open", new_callable=mock_open)def test_file_reading(mock_file):    """Test file reading with mocked open."""    mock_file.return_value.read.return_value = "file content"
    result = read_file("test.txt")
    mock_file.assert_called_once_with("test.txt", "r")    assert result == "file content"

使用 Autospec

python
@patch("mypackage.DBConnection", autospec=True)def test_autospec(db_mock):    """Test with autospec to catch API misuse."""    db = db_mock.return_value    db.query("SELECT * FROM users")
    # This would fail if DBConnection doesn't have query method    db_mock.assert_called_once()

模拟类实例

python
class TestUserService:    @patch("mypackage.UserRepository")    def test_create_user(self, repo_mock):        """Test user creation with mocked repository."""        repo_mock.return_value.save.return_value = User(id=1, name="Alice")
        service = UserService(repo_mock.return_value)        user = service.create_user(name="Alice")
        assert user.name == "Alice"        repo_mock.return_value.save.assert_called_once()

模拟属性

python
@pytest.fixturedef mock_config():    """Create a mock with a property."""    config = Mock()    type(config).debug = PropertyMock(return_value=True)    type(config).api_key = PropertyMock(return_value="test-key")    return config
def test_with_mock_config(mock_config):    """Test with mocked config properties."""    assert mock_config.debug is True    assert mock_config.api_key == "test-key"

测试异步代码

使用 pytest-asyncio 进行异步测试

python
import pytest
@pytest.mark.asyncioasync def test_async_function():    """Test async function."""    result = await async_add(2, 3)    assert result == 5
@pytest.mark.asyncioasync def test_async_with_fixture(async_client):    """Test async with async fixture."""    response = await async_client.get("/api/users")    assert response.status_code == 200

异步夹具

python
@pytest.fixtureasync def async_client():    """Async fixture providing async test client."""    app = create_app()    async with app.test_client() as client:        yield client
@pytest.mark.asyncioasync def test_api_endpoint(async_client):    """Test using async fixture."""    response = await async_client.get("/api/data")    assert response.status_code == 200

模拟异步函数

python
@pytest.mark.asyncio@patch("mypackage.async_api_call")async def test_async_mock(api_call_mock):    """Test async function with mock."""    api_call_mock.return_value = {"status": "ok"}
    result = await my_async_function()
    api_call_mock.assert_awaited_once()    assert result["status"] == "ok"

测试异常

测试预期异常

python
def test_divide_by_zero():    """Test that dividing by zero raises ZeroDivisionError."""    with pytest.raises(ZeroDivisionError):        divide(10, 0)
def test_custom_exception():    """Test custom exception with message."""    with pytest.raises(ValueError, match="invalid input"):        validate_input("invalid")

测试异常属性

python
def test_exception_with_details():    """Test exception with custom attributes."""    with pytest.raises(CustomError) as exc_info:        raise CustomError("error", code=400)
    assert exc_info.value.code == 400    assert "error" in str(exc_info.value)

测试副作用

测试文件操作

python
import tempfileimport os
def test_file_processing():    """Test file processing with temp file."""    with tempfile.NamedTemporaryFile(mode='w', delete=False, suffix='.txt') as f:        f.write("test content")        temp_path = f.name
    try:        result = process_file(temp_path)        assert result == "processed: test content"    finally:        os.unlink(temp_path)

使用 pytest 的 tmp_path 夹具进行测试

python
def test_with_tmp_path(tmp_path):    """Test using pytest's built-in temp path fixture."""    test_file = tmp_path / "test.txt"    test_file.write_text("hello world")
    result = process_file(str(test_file))    assert result == "hello world"    # tmp_path automatically cleaned up

使用 tmpdir 夹具进行测试

python
def test_with_tmpdir(tmpdir):    """Test using pytest's tmpdir fixture."""    test_file = tmpdir.join("test.txt")    test_file.write("data")
    result = process_file(str(test_file))    assert result == "data"

测试组织

目录结构

tests/├── conftest.py                 # 共享 fixtures├── __init__.py├── unit/                       # 单元测试│   ├── __init__.py│   ├── test_models.py│   ├── test_utils.py│   └── test_services.py├── integration/                # 集成测试│   ├── __init__.py│   ├── test_api.py│   └── test_database.py└── e2e/                        # 端到端测试    ├── __init__.py    └── test_user_flow.py

测试类

python
class TestUserService:    """Group related tests in a class."""
    @pytest.fixture(autouse=True)    def setup(self):        """Setup runs before each test in this class."""        self.service = UserService()
    def test_create_user(self):        """Test user creation."""        user = self.service.create_user("Alice")        assert user.name == "Alice"
    def test_delete_user(self):        """Test user deletion."""        user = User(id=1, name="Bob")        self.service.delete_user(user)        assert not self.service.user_exists(1)

最佳实践

应该做

  • 遵循 TDD:在代码之前编写测试(红-绿-重构)
  • 测试单一事物:每个测试应验证一个单一行为
  • 使用描述性名称:test_user_login_with_invalid_credentials_fails
  • 使用夹具:用夹具消除重复
  • 模拟外部依赖:不要依赖外部服务
  • 测试边界情况:空输入、None 值、边界条件
  • 目标 80%+ 覆盖率:关注关键路径
  • 保持测试快速:使用标记来分离慢速测试

不要做

  • 不要测试实现:测试行为,而非内部实现
  • 不要在测试中使用复杂的条件语句:保持测试简单
  • 不要忽略测试失败:所有测试必须通过
  • 不要测试第三方代码:相信库能正常工作
  • 不要在测试之间共享状态:测试应该是独立的
  • 不要在测试中捕获异常:使用 pytest.raises
  • 不要使用 print 语句:使用断言和 pytest 输出
  • 不要编写过于脆弱的测试:避免过度具体的模拟

常见模式

测试 API 端点 (FastAPI/Flask)

python
@pytest.fixturedef client():    app = create_app(testing=True)    return app.test_client()
def test_get_user(client):    response = client.get("/api/users/1")    assert response.status_code == 200    assert response.json["id"] == 1
def test_create_user(client):    response = client.post("/api/users", json={        "name": "Alice",        "email": "[email protected]"    })    assert response.status_code == 201    assert response.json["name"] == "Alice"

测试数据库操作

python
@pytest.fixturedef db_session():    """Create a test database session."""    session = Session(bind=engine)    session.begin_nested()    yield session    session.rollback()    session.close()
def test_create_user(db_session):    user = User(name="Alice", email="[email protected]")    db_session.add(user)    db_session.commit()
    retrieved = db_session.query(User).filter_by(name="Alice").first()    assert retrieved.email == "[email protected]"

测试类方法

python
class TestCalculator:    @pytest.fixture    def calculator(self):        return Calculator()
    def test_add(self, calculator):        assert calculator.add(2, 3) == 5
    def test_divide_by_zero(self, calculator):        with pytest.raises(ZeroDivisionError):            calculator.divide(10, 0)
