9 Malicious NuGet Packages Deliver Time-Delayed Destructive Payloads
Socket researchers discovered nine malicious NuGet packages that use time-delayed payloads to crash applications and corrupt industrial control systems.
pytest-beakerlib
Advanced tools
A pytest plugin that reports test results to the BeakerLib framework.
Once installed, this plugin can be activated via the --with-beakerlib option.
This requires a BeakerLib session (i.e. rlJournalStart should have been run,
so that $BEAKERLIB is set)
Release tarballs are available for download from Fedora Hosted: https://pagure.io/releases/python-pytest-beakerlib/
You can also install using pip: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pytest-beakerlib/0.2
The plugin is also available in Fedora repositories as
python3-pytest-beakerlib.
A Bash process is run on the side, and BeakerLib commands (rlPhaseStart,
rlPhaseEnd, rlPass, rlFail, ...) are fed to it.
This is not very elegant, but since BeakerLib commands are Bash functions,
there is no way around running Bash.
Other plugins may integrate with this using pytest's
config.pluginmanager.getplugin('BeakerLibPlugin'). If this is None,
BeakerLib integration is not active, otherwise the result's
run_beakerlib_command method can be used to run additional commands.
The project is happy to accept patches!
Please file any patches as Pull Requests on the project's Pagure repo_.
Any development discussion should be in Pagure Pull Requests and Issues.
To release, update version in setup.py, add a Git tag like "v0.3",
and run make tarball.
Running make upload will put the tarball to Fedora Hosted and PyPI,
and a SRPM on Fedorapeople, if you have the rights.
Running make release will upload and fire a COPR build.
