pytest-local-badge

Pytest local badge

Pytest extension to generate SVG badge files with pytest stats (number of tests passed, pytest-cov coverage statistics.)

Motivation

Everyone likes pretty code status badges. However, hosting them can get bit troublesome when working on private projects.

This pytest plugin sidesteps the problem by generating local badge files that you can simply add to the project repository and reference in the README.md directly.

Having a bit of extra noise in your change history is worthy cost of having pretty badges, right?

Installation

pip install pytest-local-badge

Usage

The only thing you have to tell the plugin is where to store badges:

    pytest --local-badge-output-dir badges/

All supported badges will be stored that directory. You can find the complete list of supported options by calling pytest -h and looking for all configuration parameters starting with --local-badge-*.

Here are the options available at the moment:

--no-local-badge      Disable the local badge plugin.
--local-badge-output-dir=LOCAL_BADGE_OUTPUT_DIR
                        The directory to save local badges to.
--local-badge-generate={cov,status} [{cov,status} ...]
                        List of local badges to generate.
--local-badge-status-file-name=LOCAL_BADGE_STATUS_FILE_NAME
                        Desired output file name
--local-badge-cov-file-name=LOCAL_BADGE_COV_FILE_NAME
                        Desired output file name

Supported badges:

• status -- Number of tests (total & passed)
• cov -- Coverage report as per pytest-cov plugin (the pytest-cov must be installed separately.)
