    I was leaning towards python test framework in https://github.com/vapor-ware/kubetest. however, I've since noticed that there have been no contributions to the project for several years.
  • orchestrating contaiers for testing?

    - https://github.com/praekeltfoundation/seaworthy but you have to recreate a manifest with code. Not ideal for mildly complex stuff. 3+years was last commit :(( - https://github.com/testcontainers/testcontainers-python which is weirdly specific to certain container images. Again, not working off a manifest (I think), 1 months since last commit. :( - https://github.com/vapor-ware/kubetest which uses kubernetes(k8s) manifests and integrates with pyTest. Last commit 10 month ago.

  • My Python testing style guide – Stargirl (Thea) Flowers

    I've found pytest to encourage tests with really long method names, examples from the post:

    * test_refresh_failure

    * test_refresh_with_timeout

    These get even longer like test_refresh_with_timeout_when_username_is_not_found for example.

    pytest-describe allows for a much nicer testing syntax. There's a great comparison here: https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-describe#why-bother

    TL;DR, this is nicer:

    def describe_my_function():

        def with_default_arguments():
