python_test
A single Python test file, written in either Pytest style or unittest style.
All test util code, including conftest.py
, should go into a dedicated python_source
target and then be included in the dependencies
field. (You can use the python_test_utils
target to generate these python_source
targets.)
See https://www.pantsbuild.org/v2.9/docs/python-test-goal
Backend: ``
source
str
A single file that belongs to this target.
Path is relative to the BUILD file's directory, e.g. source='example.ext'
.
dependencies
Iterable[str] | None
None
Addresses to other targets that this target depends on, e.g. ['helloworld/subdir:lib', 'helloworld/main.py:lib', '3rdparty:reqs#django'].
This augments any dependencies inferred by Pants, such as by analyzing your imports. Use ./pants dependencies
or ./pants peek
on this target to get the final result.
See https://www.pantsbuild.org/v2.9/docs/targets#target-addresses and https://www.pantsbuild.org/v2.9/docs/targets#target-generation for more about how addresses are formed, including for generated targets. You can also run ./pants list ::
to find all addresses in your project, or ./pants list dir:
to find all addresses defined in that directory.
If the target is in the same BUILD file, you can leave off the BUILD file path, e.g. :tgt
instead of helloworld/subdir:tgt
. For generated first-party addresses, use ./
for the file path, e.g. ./main.py:tgt
; for all other generated targets, use :tgt#generated_name
.
You may exclude dependencies by prefixing with !
, e.g. ['!helloworld/subdir:lib', '!./sibling.txt']
. Ignores are intended for false positives with dependency inference; otherwise, simply leave off the dependency from the BUILD file.
description
str | None
None
A human-readable description of the target.
Use ./pants list --documented ::
to see all targets with descriptions.
experimental_resolve
str | None
None
The resolve from [python].experimental_resolves_to_lockfiles
to use, if any.
This field is highly experimental and may change without the normal deprecation policy.
extra_env_vars
Iterable[str] | None
None
Additional environment variables to include in test processes. Entries are strings in the form ENV_VAR=value
to use explicitly; or just ENV_VAR
to copy the value of a variable in Pants's own environment. This will be merged with and override values from [test].extra_env_vars.
interpreter_constraints
Iterable[str] | None
None
The Python interpreters this code is compatible with.
Each element should be written in pip-style format, e.g. CPython==2.7.*
or CPython>=3.6,<4
. You can leave off CPython
as a shorthand, e.g. >=2.7
will be expanded to CPython>=2.7
.
Specify more than one element to OR the constraints, e.g. ['PyPy==3.7.*', 'CPython==3.7.*']
means either PyPy 3.7 or CPython 3.7.
If the field is not set, it will default to the option [python].interpreter_constraints
.
See https://www.pantsbuild.org/v2.9/docs/python-interpreter-compatibility for how these interpreter constraints are merged with the constraints of dependencies.
runtime_package_dependencies
Iterable[str] | None
None
Addresses to targets that can be built with the ./pants package
goal and whose resulting artifacts should be included in the test run.
Pants will build the artifacts as if you had run ./pants package
. It will include the results in your test's chroot, using the same name they would normally have, but without the --distdir
prefix (e.g. dist/
).
You can include anything that can be built by ./pants package
, e.g. a pex_binary
, python_awslambda
, or an archive
.
skip_autoflake
bool
False
If true, don't run Autoflake on this target's code.
skip_bandit
bool
False
If true, don't run Bandit on this target's code.
skip_black
bool
False
If true, don't run Black on this target's code.
skip_docformatter
bool
False
If true, don't run Docformatter on this target's code.
skip_flake8
bool
False
If true, don't run Flake8 on this target's code.
skip_isort
bool
False
If true, don't run isort on this target's code.
skip_mypy
bool
False
If true, don't run MyPy on this target's code.
skip_pylint
bool
False
If true, don't run Pylint on this target's code.
skip_pyupgrade
bool
False
If true, don't run pyupgrade on this target's code.
skip_tests
bool
False
If true, don't run this target's tests.
skip_yapf
bool
False
If true, don't run yapf on this target's code.
tags
Iterable[str] | None
None
Arbitrary strings to describe a target.
For example, you may tag some test targets with 'integration_test' so that you could run ./pants --tag='integration_test' test ::
to only run on targets with that tag.
timeout
int | None
None
A timeout (in seconds) used by each test file belonging to this target.
If unset, will default to [pytest].timeout_default
; if that option is also unset, then the test will never time out. Will never exceed [pytest].timeout_maximum
. Only applies if the option --pytest-timeouts
is set to true (the default).
