pytest plugin to create a tmp_path containing a preconfigured set of files
|
|
and/or directories.
|
|
|
|
This plugin allows you to specify one or several files/directories that are
|
|
copied to a temporary directory (tmp_path) before the execution of the test.
|
|
This means the original files are not modified and every test runs on its own
|
|
version of the same files.
|
|
|
|
Files/directories can be specified either as strings or as pathlib.Path objects.
|
|
|
|
To take advantage of the datafiles fixture in a test function, add datafiles as
|
|
one of the test function parameters (per usual with pytest fixtures) and
|
|
decorate the test function with
|
|
@pytest.mark.datafiles(file1, file2, dir1, dir2, ...).
|
|
|
|
The datafiles variable in your test function is a pathlib.Path object (tmp_path)
|
|
where the copied files are located.
|
|
Under OpenBSD systems this will most likely be some subdirectory of /tmp/.
