Uv Pytest

Running pytest in uv monorepos with correct package management. Use when running tests in this codebase - ensures correct uv commands are used instead of bare pytest or pip, handles module import errors with proper sync flags, and manages monorepo package structure correctly. Use when this capability is needed.

UV Pytest for Monorepos

Run pytest correctly in uv-managed monorepos with packages in packages/ directory.

Core Rules

ALWAYS follow these rules:

Use uv run --directory for pytest
```
uv run --directory packages/PACKAGE_NAME pytest [args]
```
NEVER use bare pytest command.
Sync environment when modules are missing If you encounter import errors or "module not found":
```
uv sync --all-packages --all-groups --reinstall
```
Then retry the pytest command.
NEVER use pip This is a uv-managed project. Use uv commands only, never pip install or similar.

Common Scenarios

Run all tests for a specific package

uv run --directory packages/pitlane-core pytest

Run tests with verbosity

uv run --directory packages/pitlane-core pytest -v

Run specific test file

uv run --directory packages/pitlane-core pytest tests/test_session.py

Run specific test function

uv run --directory packages/pitlane-core pytest tests/test_session.py -k test_workspace_creation

Run with coverage

uv run --directory packages/pitlane-core pytest --cov

Using the Helper Script

A helper script is available that automatically syncs the environment before running tests:

./uv-pytest/scripts/run_pytest.sh PACKAGE_NAME [pytest-args]

Examples:

./uv-pytest/scripts/run_pytest.sh pitlane-core -v
./uv-pytest/scripts/run_pytest.sh pitlane-core tests/test_session.py -k test_function

The script ensures the environment is synced with --all-packages --all-groups --reinstall before running tests.

Troubleshooting

"Module not found" or import errors:

Run: uv sync --all-packages --all-groups --reinstall
Retry the pytest command

Tests not discovered:

Verify you're using --directory packages/PACKAGE_NAME
Check that the package name is correct
Ensure you're running from the repository root

Wrong Python or dependencies:

NEVER use pip to install packages
Use uv sync --all-packages --all-groups --reinstall to fix environment issues
