unittest2pytest is a tool that helps rewriting Python unittest test-cases into pytest test-cases.
In contrast to other similar tools, this unittest2pytest
- handles keyword arguments,
- handles single-line test-cases and several tests on one line,
- uses context-handlers where appropriate.
This is done by using lib2to3
and Python's mighty inspect
module.
To install unittest2pytest, simply run:
pip install unittest2pytest
To print a diff of changes that unittest2pytest will make against a particular source file or directory:
unittest2pytest source_folder
To have those changes written to the files:
unittest2pytest -w source_folder
To have those changes written to another directory:
unittest2pytest -w source_folder --output-dir /some/where/else
By default, this will create backup files for each file that will be changed. You can add the -n option to not create the backups. Please do not do this if you are not using a version control system.
For more options about running particular fixers, run unittest2pytest --help
or read the lib2to3 documentation. This tool is built on top of that one.
A list of the available fixers can be found with the following:
$ unittest2pytest -l
Available transformations for the -f/--fix option:
remove_class
self_assert
