Python unittests in Jenkins?
sample tests:
tests.py:
# tests.pyimport randomtry: import unittest2 as unittestexcept ImportError: import unittestclass SimpleTest(unittest.TestCase): @unittest.skip("demonstrating skipping") def test_skipped(self): self.fail("shouldn't happen") def test_pass(self): self.assertEqual(10, 7 + 3) def test_fail(self): self.assertEqual(11, 7 + 3)
JUnit with pytest
run the tests with:
py.test --junitxml results.xml tests.py
results.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><testsuite errors="0" failures="1" name="pytest" skips="1" tests="2" time="0.097"> <testcase classname="tests.SimpleTest" name="test_fail" time="0.000301837921143"> <failure message="test failure">self = <tests.SimpleTest testMethod=test_fail> def test_fail(self):> self.assertEqual(11, 7 + 3)E AssertionError: 11 != 10tests.py:16: AssertionError</failure> </testcase> <testcase classname="tests.SimpleTest" name="test_pass" time="0.000109910964966"/> <testcase classname="tests.SimpleTest" name="test_skipped" time="0.000164031982422"> <skipped message="demonstrating skipping" type="pytest.skip">/home/damien/test-env/lib/python2.6/site-packages/_pytest/unittest.py:119: Skipped: demonstrating skipping</skipped> </testcase></testsuite>
JUnit with nose
run the tests with:
nosetests --with-xunit
nosetests.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><testsuite name="nosetests" tests="3" errors="0" failures="1" skip="1"> <testcase classname="tests.SimpleTest" name="test_fail" time="0.000"> <failure type="exceptions.AssertionError" message="11 != 10"> <![CDATA[Traceback (most recent call last):File "/opt/python-2.6.1/lib/python2.6/site-packages/unittest2-0.5.1-py2.6.egg/unittest2/case.py", line 340, in runtestMethod()File "/home/damien/tests.py", line 16, in test_failself.assertEqual(11, 7 + 3)File "/opt/python-2.6.1/lib/python2.6/site-packages/unittest2-0.5.1-py2.6.egg/unittest2/case.py", line 521, in assertEqualassertion_func(first, second, msg=msg)File "/opt/python-2.6.1/lib/python2.6/site-packages/unittest2-0.5.1-py2.6.egg/unittest2/case.py", line 514, in _baseAssertEqualraise self.failureException(msg)AssertionError: 11 != 10]]> </failure> </testcase> <testcase classname="tests.SimpleTest" name="test_pass" time="0.000"></testcase> <testcase classname="tests.SimpleTest" name="test_skipped" time="0.000"> <skipped type="nose.plugins.skip.SkipTest" message="demonstrating skipping"> <![CDATA[SkipTest: demonstrating skipping]]> </skipped> </testcase></testsuite>
JUnit with nose2
You would need to use the nose2.plugins.junitxml
plugin. You can configure nose2
with a config file like you would normally do, or with the --plugin
command-line option.
run the tests with:
nose2 --plugin nose2.plugins.junitxml --junit-xml tests
nose2-junit.xml:
<testsuite errors="0" failures="1" name="nose2-junit" skips="1" tests="3" time="0.001"> <testcase classname="tests.SimpleTest" name="test_fail" time="0.000126"> <failure message="test failure">Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Users/damien/Work/test2/tests.py", line 18, in test_fail self.assertEqual(11, 7 + 3)AssertionError: 11 != 10</failure> </testcase> <testcase classname="tests.SimpleTest" name="test_pass" time="0.000095" /> <testcase classname="tests.SimpleTest" name="test_skipped" time="0.000058"> <skipped /> </testcase></testsuite>
JUnit with unittest-xml-reporting
Append the following to tests.py
if __name__ == '__main__': import xmlrunner unittest.main(testRunner=xmlrunner.XMLTestRunner(output='test-reports'))
run the tests with:
python tests.py
test-reports/TEST-SimpleTest-20131001140629.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" ?><testsuite errors="1" failures="0" name="SimpleTest-20131001140629" tests="3" time="0.000"> <testcase classname="SimpleTest" name="test_pass" time="0.000"/> <testcase classname="SimpleTest" name="test_fail" time="0.000"> <error message="11 != 10" type="AssertionError"><![CDATA[Traceback (most recent call last): File "tests.py", line 16, in test_fail self.assertEqual(11, 7 + 3)AssertionError: 11 != 10]]> </error> </testcase> <testcase classname="SimpleTest" name="test_skipped" time="0.000"> <skipped message="demonstrating skipping" type="skip"/> </testcase> <system-out><![CDATA[]]> </system-out> <system-err><![CDATA[]]> </system-err></testsuite>
I would second using nose. Basic XML reporting is now built in. Just use the --with-xunit command line option and it will produce a nosetests.xml file. For example:
nosetests --with-xunit
Then add a "Publish JUnit test result report" post build action, and fill in the "Test report XMLs" field with nosetests.xml (assuming that you ran nosetests in $WORKSPACE).
You can install the unittest-xml-reporting package to add a test runner that generates XML to the built-in unittest
.
We use pytest, which has XML output built in (it's a command line option).
Either way, executing the unit tests can be done by running a shell command.
