pytest-qt
=========
pytest-qt is a `pytest`_ plugin that allows programmers to write tests
for `PyQt5`_, `PyQt6`_, `PySide2`_ and `PySide6`_ applications.
The main usage is to use the ``qtbot`` fixture, responsible for handling ``qApp``
creation as needed and provides methods to simulate user interaction,
like key presses and mouse clicks:
.. code-block:: python
def test_hello(qtbot):
widget = HelloWidget()
qtbot.addWidget(widget)
# click in the Greet button and make sure it updates the appropriate label
qtbot.mouseClick(widget.button_greet, qt_api.QtCore.Qt.MouseButton.LeftButton)
assert widget.greet_label.text() == "Hello!"
.. _PySide2: https://pypi.org/project/PySide2/
.. _PySide6: https://pypi.org/project/PySide6/
.. _PyQt5: https://pypi.org/project/PyQt5/
.. _PyQt6: https://pypi.org/project/PyQt6/
.. _pytest: http://pytest.org
This allows you to test and make sure your view layer is behaving the way you expect after each code change.

Features
========
- `qtbot`_ fixture to simulate user interaction with ``Qt`` widgets.
- `Automatic capture`_ of ``qDebug``, ``qWarning`` and ``qCritical`` messages;
- waitSignal_ and waitSignals_ functions to block test execution until specific
signals are emitted.
- `Exceptions in virtual methods and slots`_ are automatically captured and
fail tests accordingly.

Requirements
============
Since version 4.1.0, ``pytest-qt`` requires Python 3.7+.
Works with either PySide6_, PySide2_, PyQt6_ or PyQt5_.
If any of the above libraries is already imported by the time the tests execute, that library will be used.
If not, pytest-qt will try to import and use the Qt APIs, in this order:
- ``PySide6``
- ``PySide2``
- ``PyQt6``
- ``PyQt5``
To force a particular API, set the configuration variable ``qt_api`` in your ``pytest.ini`` file to
``pyside6``, ``pyside2``, ``pyqt6`` or ``pyqt5``:
.. code-block:: ini
[pytest]
qt_api=pyqt5
Alternatively, you can set the ``PYTEST_QT_API`` environment
variable to the same values described above (the environment variable wins over the configuration
if both are set).
Documentation
=============
Full documentation and tutorial available at `Read the Docs`_.
.. _Read The Docs: https://pytest-qt.readthedocs.io
Change Log
==========
Please consult the `changelog page`_.
.. _changelog page: https://pytest-qt.readthedocs.io/en/latest/changelog.html
Bugs/Requests
=============
Please report any issues or feature requests in the `issue tracker`_.
.. _issue tracker: https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-qt/issues
Contributing
============
Contributions are welcome, so feel free to submit a bug or feature
request.
Pull requests are highly appreciated! If you
can, include some tests that exercise the new code or test that a bug has been
fixed, and make sure to include yourself in the contributors list. :)
To prepare your environment, create a virtual environment and install ``pytest-qt`` in editable mode with ``dev``
extras::
$ pip install --editable .[dev]
After that install ``pre-commit`` for pre-commit checks::
$ pre-commit install
Running tests
-------------
Tests are run using `tox`_::
$ tox -e py37-pyside2,py37-pyqt5
``pytest-qt`` is formatted using `black <https://github.com/ambv/black>`_ and uses
`pre-commit <https://github.com/pre-commit/pre-commit>`_ for linting checks before commits. You
can install ``pre-commit`` locally with::
$ pip install pre-commit
$ pre-commit install
Related projects
----------------
- `pytest-xvfb <https://github.com/The-Compiler/pytest-xvfb/>`_ allows to run a virtual xserver (Xvfb) on Linux to avoid GUI elements popping up on the screen or for easy CI testing
- `pytest-qml <https://github.com/jgirardet/pytest-qml>`_ allows running QML tests from pytest
