Pytest Configuration Patterns

Standardized pytest configuration and patterns for consistent testing infrastructure across Claude Night Market plugins.

Quick Start

Basic pyproject.toml Configuration

[tool.pytest.ini_options]
testpaths = ["tests"]
python_files = ["test_*.py"]
python_classes = ["Test*"]
python_functions = ["test_*"]
addopts = [
    "-v",
    "--cov=src",
    "--cov-report=term-missing",
    "--cov-fail-under=80",
    "--strict-markers",
]
markers = [
    "unit: marks tests as unit tests",
    "integration: marks tests as integration tests",
    "slow: marks tests as slow running",
]

[tool.coverage.run]
source = ["src"]
omit = ["*/tests/*", "*/migrations/*", "*/__pycache__/*"]
branch = true

[tool.coverage.report]
exclude_lines = [
    "pragma: no cover",
    "def __repr__",
    "def __str__",
    "raise NotImplementedError",
    "if __name__ == .__main__.:",
    "if TYPE_CHECKING:",
    "class .*\\bProtocol\\):",
    "@(abc\\.)?abstractmethod",
]
precision = 2
show_missing = true

Verification: Run pytest -v to verify tests pass.

Detailed Patterns

For detailed implementation patterns, see:

• Conftest Patterns - Conftest.py templates, fixtures, test markers, and directory structure
• Git Testing Fixtures - GitRepository helper class for testing git workflows
• Mock Fixtures - Mock tool fixtures for Bash, TodoWrite, and other Claude Code tools
• CI Integration - GitHub Actions workflows and test commands for automated testing

Integration with Other Skills

This skill provides foundational patterns referenced by:

• parseltongue:python-testing - Uses pytest configuration and fixtures
• pensive:test-review - Uses test quality standards
• sanctum:test-* - Uses conftest patterns and Git fixtures

Reference in your skill's frontmatter:

dependencies: [leyline:pytest-config, leyline:testing-quality-standards]

Verification: Run pytest -v to verify tests pass.

Exit Criteria

• pytest configuration standardized across plugins
• conftest.py provides reusable fixtures
• test markers defined and documented
• coverage configuration enforces quality thresholds
• CI/CD integration configured for automated testing

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

Tests not discovered Ensure test files match pattern test_*.py or *_test.py. Run pytest --collect-only to verify.

Import errors Check that the module being tested is in PYTHONPATH or install with pip install -e .

Async tests failing Install pytest-asyncio and decorate test functions with @pytest.mark.asyncio
