mamba: the definitive test runner for Python

Build Status Latest PyPI Version Read The Docs Status PyPI pyversions

mamba is the definitive test runner for Python. Born under the banner of behavior-driven development.

Install

I recommend to use pipenv for managing your dependencies, thus you can install mamba like any other Python package.

By example:

  $ pipenv install mamba

But you also can use pip:

  $ pip install mamba

Getting Started

Write a very simple example that describes your code behaviour:

  # tennis_spec.py

  from mamba import description, context, it
  from expects import expect, equal

  with description('Tennis') as self:
    with it('starts with 0 - 0 score'):
      rafa_nadal = "Rafa Nadal"
      roger_federer = "Roger Federer"
      game = Game(rafa_nadal, roger_federer)

      expect(game.score()).to(equal((0, 0)))

Run the example, and don't forget to watch it fail!

  $ pipenv run mamba tennis_spec.py

  F

  1 examples failed of 1 ran in 0.0023 seconds

  Failures:

    1) Tennis it starts with 0 - 0 score
      Failure/Error: tennis_spec.py game = Game(rafa_nadal, roger_federer)
          NameError: global name 'Game' is not defined

      File "tennis_spec.py", line 8, in 00000001__it starts with 0 - 0 score--
          game = Game(rafa_nadal, roger_federer)

Now write as little code for making it pass.

  # tennis_spec.py

  from mamba import description, context, it
  from expects import expect, equal

  import tennis

  with description('Tennis') as self:
    with it('starts with 0 - 0 score'):
      rafa_nadal = "Rafa Nadal"
      roger_federer = "Roger Federer"
      game = tennis.Game(rafa_nadal, roger_federer)

      expect(game.score()).to(equal((0, 0)))
  # tennis.py

  class Game(object):
    def __init__(self, player1, player2):
      pass

    def score(self):
      return (0, 0)

Run the spec file and enjoy that all tests are green!

  $ pipenv run mamba tennis_spec.py

  .

  1 examples ran in 0.0022 seconds

Settings

Mamba provides a way to configuration using spec/spec_helper.py or specs/spec_helper.py This module function is read after parsing arguments so configure function overrides settings

A sample config file :

def configure(settings):
  # settings.slow_test_threshold = 0.075
  # settings.enable_code_coverage = False
  # settings.code_coverage_file = '.coverage'
  settings.format = 'documentation'
  # settings.no_color = False
  # settings.tags = None
