Germanium

The main reason of the library was to create wrapper over selenium framework for Django unit tests, but over time the library was changed to test utils for the standard Django unit tests.

Installation

Install django-germanium with the pip command:

pip install django-germanium

Set the germanium test runner in your settings:

TEST_RUNNER = 'germanium.django.runner.GermaniumDiscoverRunner'

Configuration

Fixtures

If you want to use fixtures for the all test cases which use GermaniumTestCase test case you can define path to the file in your django settings with parameter:

GERMANIUM_GLOBAL_FIXTURES = {
    'default': [
        os.path.join(PROJECT_DIR, 'data/common/test/init_data.json'),
    ]
}

The key 'default' is name of the database which is configured in your django DATABASES setting.

Multiple DB testing

Django rollbacks only primary database in TestCase by default. With GermaniumTestCase you can turn on the rollbacks on the all databases with setting:

GERMANIUM_TEST_ALL_DATABASES = True

Test Cases

The library provides several test cases and mixins which simplify test definitions. There are in the package test_cases which is divided into modules:

germanium.tests_cases.default - main Germanium test cases
germanium.tests_cases.auth - contains a test case class which can help with user authentication
germanium.tests_cases.client - test cases with methods helping with testing endpoints and web pages
germanium.tests_cases.rest - test cases with methods helping with testing REST API
germanium.tests_cases.models - depricated tests case helping with model tests
germanium.tests_cases.migrations - a migration tests case helper

Default

Default module contains four classes with this inheritance:

`GermaniumSimpleTestCaseMixin`

Upgrades test cases with test all database helper (setting GERMANIUM_TEST_ALL_DATABASES) and methods set_up_class, tear_down_class, set_up, tear_down which is the same as original methods setUpClass, tearDownClass, setUp, tearDown but in the camel case format.

Germanium defines django signals in the module germanium.signals. These signals are automatically triggered in the corresponding method setUpClass, tearDownClass, setUp or tearDown:

set_up_class = Signal()
tear_down_class = Signal()
set_up = Signal()
tear_down = Signal()

`GermaniumTestCaseMixin`

The mixin only adds ability to use GERMANIUM_FIXTURES setting.

`GermaniumTestCase` and `GermaniumSimpleTestCase`

Classes are only connection of mixins and django test cases. No new functionality are added. GermaniumTestCase should be used for transaction tests and GermaniumSimpleTestCase for non transaction tests.

Auth

Module implements only one mixin AuthTestCaseMixin and helper proxy object UserProxy which may help to write tests with user login:

from germanium.test_cases.auth import AuthTestCaseMixin
from germanium.test_cases.default import GermaniumTestCase
from germanium.tools import assert_true
from germanium.decorators import login

class TestCaseWithLogin(AuthTestCaseMixin, GermaniumTestCase):

    def get_user(self):
        # create your test user
        return UserProxy(username='test', password='test', user=User.objects.create(username='test', password='test'))
        
    def authorize(self, username, password):
        # your authorization implementation
        ...

    def logout(self):
        # your logout implementation
        ...

    @login
    def test_logged_user(self):
        assert_true(self.logged_user.user.is_authenticated)

As you can see in the example you should implement three methods:

logout - for example logout user via REST API
authorize - login user (API or standard django login helper)
get_user - create user and return it in the UserProxy proxy object with its username and password

Finally, you can use @login decorator to run test with a logged user.

Client

ClientTestCase and SimpleClientTestCase are Germanium tests cases with methods for testing HTTP resources. These test cases inherits AuthTestCaseMixin too and implements authorize and logout methods. The methods for testing HTTP requests are:

get(url, headers=None) - sends the GET HTTP requests to url with headers headers and return response
put(url, data={}, headers={}) - sends the PUT HTTP requests to url with data data and headers headers and return response
post(url, data={}, headers={}) - sends the POST HTTP requests to url with data data and headers headers and return response
head(url, headers=None) - sends the HEAD HTTP requests to url with headers headers and return response
options(url, headers=None) - sends the OPTIONS HTTP requests to url with headers headers and return response
delete(url, headers={}) - sends the DELETE HTTP requests to url with headers headers and return response

Rest

Rest module is very similar to client module. Its purpose is to test REST API. There are the same test helpers as in the Client test cases and two new helpers:

deserialize(resp, content_type) - deserialize the response to the base python data types according to content type.
serialize(data, content_type) - serialize data to the format for API request.

Only JSON serialized is implemented by default. You can add your serializer and deserializer into test case properties SERIALIZERS and DESERIALIZERS.

Migrations

Test case MigrationTestCase in migrations module help can help with migrations testing. You have to only define properties migrate_from and migrate_to. Migrations between migrate_from and migrate_to of the app where is the test case stored are tested:

from germanium.test_cases.migrations import MigrationTestCase

class YourMigrationTestCase(MigrationTestCase):

    migration_from = '0001_migration'
    migration_to = '0010_migration'

Tools

Germanium adds tools helping with testing. It is similar to the nose.tools module which provides a number of testing aids that you may find useful, including decorators for restricting test execution time and testing for exceptions, and all of the same assertX methods found in unittest.TestCase (only spelled in PEP 8#function-names fashion, so assert_equal rather than assertEqual).

Trivials

fail

Fail defines a bad test branch which process cannot achieve:

    from germanium.tools import fail

    def test_with_fail(self):
        if term_should_not_be_true:
            fail('optional fail message')

assert_not_raises

A context manager similar to assert_raises but you want to test that an exception should not be raised:

    from germanium.tools import assert_not_raises

    def test_assert_not_raises(self):
        with assert_not_raises(SomeException):
            code_should_not_raise_some_exception()

assert_length_equal

An assert testing if iterable len has expected number of elements.

    from germanium.tools import assert_length_equal

    def test_assert_length_equal(self):
        assert_length_equal([1, 2], 2, 'optional fail message')

all_eq_obj, not_none_eq_obj

Helper singletons which can be used for comparing two elements (for example dicts) where matching some value is not required:

    from germanium.tools import all_eq_obj, not_none_eq_obj, assert_equal, assert_not_equal

    def test_matching_signletons(self):
        assert_equal({'a': 5, 'b': 6}, {'a': 5, 'b': all_eq_obj})
        assert_equal({'a': 5, 'b': None}, {'a': 5, 'b': all_eq_obj})
        assert_not_equal({'a': 5}, {'a': 5, 'b': all_eq_obj})
        assert_not_equal({'a': 8, 'b': None}, {'a': 5, 'b': all_eq_obj})
        assert_not_equal({'a': 5, 'b': None}, {'a': 5, 'b': not_none_eq_obj})
        assert_equal({'a': 5, 'b': 6}, {'a': 5, 'b': not_none_eq_obj})

Http

Http tools adds asserts for testing requests and responses:

assert_http_ok(resp, msg=None) - test if the response code is 200
assert_http_created(resp, msg=None) - test if the response code is 201
assert_http_accepted(resp, msg=None) - test if the response code is 202 or 204
assert_http_multiple_choices(resp, msg=None) - test if the response code is 300
assert_http_redirect(resp, msg=None) - test if the response code is 302
assert_http_see_other(resp, msg=None) - test if the response code is 303
assert_http_not_modified(resp, msg=None) - test if the response code is 304
assert_http_bad_request(resp, msg=None) - test if the response code is 400
assert_http_unauthorized(resp, msg=None) - test if the response code is 401
assert_http_forbidden(resp, msg=None) - test if the response code is 403
assert_http_not_found(resp, msg=None) - test if the response code is 404
assert_http_method_not_allowed(resp, msg=None) - test if the response code is 405
assert_http_conflict(resp, msg=None) - test if the response code is 409
assert_http_gone(resp, msg=None) - test if the response code is 410
assert_http_unprocessable_entity(resp, msg=None) - test if the response code is 422
assert_http_too_many_requests(resp, msg=None) - test if the response code is 429
assert_http_application_error(resp, msg=None) - test if the response code is 500
assert_http_not_implemented(resp, msg=None) - test if the response code is 501
assert_http_bad_gateway(resp, msg=None) - test if the response code is 502
assert_http_service_unavailable(resp, msg=None) - test if the response code is 503
assert_http_gateway_timeout(resp, msg=None) - test if the response code is 504

Rest

Rest asserts to test response:

assert_valid_JSON(data, msg=None) - data is valid JSON string
assert_valid_JSON_response(resp, msg=None) - the response content is valid JSON
assert_valid_JSON_created_response(resp, msg=None) - the response content is valid JSON and its status code is 201
assert_keys(data, expected, msg=None) - the assert ensures that the keys of the data match up to the keys of expected.

Models

Helpers for testing django models:

get_pks(iterable) - return list of models pk from iterable
assert_iterable_equal(first, second, msg=None) - two iterable objects are equal with no matter on its order
assert_qs_exists(qs, msg=None) - a queryset is not empty
assert_qs_not_exists(qs, msg=None) - a queryset is empty
assert_qs_contains(qs, obj, msg=None) - a queryset contains the object
assert_qs_not_contains(qs, obj, msg=None) - a queryset does not contains the object
assert_equal_model_fields(instance, refresh_from_db=False, **field_values) - an instance fields are properly set. Value refresh_from_db defines if object should be reloaded from the DB. Usage: assert_equal_model_fields(user, username='test, email='[email protected]')
assert_num_queries(num, func=None, *args, using=DEFAULT_DB_ALIAS, clear_content_type_cache=False) - context processors for testing right number of DB queries in test:

    from germanium.tools import assert_num_queries

    def test_assert_num_queries(self):
        with assert_num_queries(10, clear_content_type_cache=True):
            function_which_perform_10_queries()

Helper assert_num_queries check if function provides exactly 10 DB queries. Parameter clear_content_type_cache defines if Django content type cache should be cleaned before testing.

Django

Helpers related to Django framework:

test_call_command

Helper for testing django commands. Command stdout and stderr are sent to /dev/null

    from germanium.tools import test_call_command

    def test_command(self):
        test_call_command('some_commmand')

capture_commit_callbacks

It is impossible to test Django on commit in the standard Django transaction test cases because a database doesn't commit data to prevent mutual influence of the tests. For this purpose you can use this context processor:

    from germanium.tools import capture_commit_callbacks
    from django.db import transaction

    def test_command(self):
        with capture_commit_callbacks(execute_on_commit=True):
            transaction.on_commit(do_something)
        assert_true(do_something.was_called)

If you are using django-chamber pre commit signal can be triggered with the context processor to with parameter execute_pre_commit=True.

For the cases when function defined in on_commit signal (do_something) will init another on_commit signal, you can use execute_on_commit_cascade=True to call signal in cascade.

Crawler

Crawler is class which can help with automatic testing of your web page. It browses your web pages from index and searching for bad responses. You can use it in your tests or as a simple script:

    from django.test.client import Client
    from germanium.crawler import Crawler, LinkExtractor
    
    def pre_request(url, referer, headers):
        """request changer"""
        return url, headers

    def post_response(url, referer, resp, exception):
        """response checker"""
        your_response_check(resp)


    Crawler(Client(), ('/',), self.get_exlude_urls(), pre_request, post_response).run()

Test decorators

There are several test decorators which you can use to write shorter and more readable tests.

Login

Decorators @login and @login_all can be used with AuthTestCaseMixin to simplify user login. The decorator @login is used in a single test:

from germanium.decorators import login

class TestCaseWithLogin(AuthTestCaseMixin, GermaniumTestCase):

    @login
    def test_logged_user(self):
        assert_true(self.logged_user.user.is_authenticated)

@login_all is used for the test case and it is only shortcut which adds @login to all tests in the test case.

from germanium.decorators import login_all

@login_all
class TestCaseWithLogin(AuthTestCaseMixin, GermaniumTestCase):
    
    def test_logged_user(self):
        assert_true(self.logged_user.user.is_authenticated)

Data provider and data consumers

Data providers and consumers are a test technique which splits test data preparation and test logics. Data consumer can be simply use to runt test with some test data:

from germanium.decorators import data_consumer

class DataConsumerTestCase(GermaniumTestCase):
    
    @data_consumer([1, 2, 3], _output_name='number')
    def test_data_consumer(self, number):
        assert_true(number in {1, 2, 3})

The test test_data_consumer will be processed three times for number 1, 2 and 3. Number will be send as test input parameter defined in property _output_name.

You can use more data providers for one test:

from germanium.decorators import data_consumer

class DataConsumerTestCase(GermaniumTestCase):
    
    @data_consumer([1, 2], _output_name='number_a')
    @data_consumer([3, 4], _output_name='number_b')
    def test_data_consumer(self, number_a, number_b):
        assert_true(number_a in {1, 2})
        assert_true(number_b in {3, 4})

In this case the test will be called four times with inputs (1, 3), (1, 4), (2, 3) and (2, 4).

You can define more parameters in one data consumer to achieve the same result:

    @data_consumer([(1, 3), (1, 4), (2, 3), (2, 3)], _output_name=['number_a', 'number_b'])
    def test_data_consumer(self, number_a, number_b):
        assert_true(number_a in {1, 2})
        assert_true(number_b in {3, 4})

Input data can be get from test case property too:

from germanium.decorators import data_consumer

class DataConsumerTestCase(GermaniumTestCase)

    test_data = [(1, 3), (1, 4), (2, 3), (2, 3)]

    @data_consumer('test_data', _output_name=['number_a', 'number_b'])
    def test_data_consumer(self, number_a, number_b):
        assert_true(number_a in {1, 2})
        assert_true(number_b in {3, 4})

Sometimes you want to create dynamically data in a function:

def get_test_data():
    for i in range(10):
        yield i

class DataConsumerTestCase(GermaniumTestCase)

    @data_consumer(get_test_data, _output_name='number')
    def test_data_consumer(self, number):
        assert_true(number_a < 10)

or as a test case method:

class DataConsumerTestCase(GermaniumTestCase)

    def get_test_data(self):
        for i in range(10):
            yield i

    @data_consumer('get_test_data', _output_name='number')
    def test_data_consumer(self, number):
        assert_true(number < 10)

For more complex data preparation you can use @data_provider:

from germanium.decorators import data_provider

@data_provider(name='number')
def get_test_data():
    return list(range(10))

class DataConsumerTestCase(GermaniumTestCase)

    @data_consumer(get_test_data)
    def test_data_consumer(self, number):
        assert_true(number < 10)

The parameter _output_name should not be defined because the name is defined in the data provider decorator. But you can rename for the test if you want:

@data_provider(name='number')
def get_test_data():
    return list(range(10))

class DataConsumerTestCase(GermaniumTestCase)

    @data_consumer(get_test_data, _output_name='number_b')
    def test_data_consumer(self, number_b):
        assert_true(number_b < 10)

You can return more named data in the data provider. Not all must be used in the test:

from germanium.decorators import NamedTestData

@data_provider
def get_test_data():
    return NamedTestData(a=1, b=2, c=3)

class DataConsumerTestCase(GermaniumTestCase)

    @data_consumer(get_test_data)
    def test_data_consumer(self, a, b):
        assert_equal(a, 1)
        assert_equal(b, 2)

If you rename data provider output name only first value from named data can be used:

@data_provider
def get_test_data():
    return NamedTestData(a=1, b=2, c=3)

class DataConsumerTestCase(GermaniumTestCase)

    @data_consumer(get_test_data, _output_name='d')
    def test_data_consumer(self, d):
        assert_equal(d, 1)

The output data of one data provider can be used in the second data provider:

@data_provider(name='a')
def get_test_data_a():
    return 1

@data_provider(name='b')
def get_test_data_b(a):
    return a + 1

class DataConsumerTestCase(GermaniumTestCase)

    @data_consumer(get_test_data_a)
    @data_consumer(get_test_data_b)
    def test_data_consumer(self, a, b):
        assert_equal(a, 1)
        assert_equal(b, 2)

You can define static input for the data provider:

from germanium.decorators import NamedDataSource

@data_provider(name='b')
def get_test_data_b(d):
    return d + 1

class DataConsumerTestCase(GermaniumTestCase)

    @data_consumer(get_test_data_b, d=5)
    def test_data_consumer(self, b):
        assert_equal(b, 6)

If you need to pass data to second data provider which input does not have the same name, you can use NamedDataSource:

from germanium.decorators import NamedDataSource

@data_provider(name='a')
def get_test_data_a():
    return 1

@data_provider(name='b')
def get_test_data_b(d):
    return d + 1

class DataConsumerTestCase(GermaniumTestCase)

    @data_consumer(get_test_data_a)
    @data_consumer(get_test_data_b, d=NamedDataSource('a'))
    def test_data_consumer(self, a, b):
        assert_equal(a, 1)
        assert_equal(b, 2)

If you are using django tests and data provider generates data in database the rollback is used after test tear down, therefore every test run has the clean data.

Storage

The Django storage defines where the files will be stored and how. For test purposes is better not to store file on disk but keep them in the memory to avoid tests influencing. Class TestInMemoryStorage can be used for these purposes. You only have to use GermaniumTestCase because storage uses Germanium set up and tear down signals. Storage you can define in your django settings (for test purposes):

DEFAULT_FILE_STORAGE = 'germanium.storage.TestInMemoryStorage'
