Installation

Prerequisites:

Python 3.10+
Pytest 6.2.5+
Active testomat.io account

Install via pip:

pip install pytestomatio

Quick Start

Get your API token

Login to testomat.io
Create project or go to existing project
Click on “Import Tests from Source Code”
Copy your project token(starts with “tstmt_“)

Sync tests

Synchronize tests to testomat.io:

TESTOMATIO=your_token pytest --testomatio sync

Report tests

Execute tests and send results to testomat.io:

TESTOMATIO=your_token pytest --testomatio report

Example of test

To make the experience more consistent, it uses standard pytest markers.
testomat.io test id is a string value that starts with @T and has 8 symbols after.

from pytest import mark


@mark.testomatio('@T96c700e6')
def test_example():
    assert 2 + 2 == 4

Advanced usage

Core commands

Synchronization

Synchronize tests to testomat.io and get back test id.

pytest --testomatio sync

Clarification:

tests will not be executed
tests can be synced even without @pytest.mark.testomatio('@T96c700e6') decorator.
test title in testomat.io == test name in pytest
test suit title in testomat.io == test file name in pytest

Clean up

Remove all test ids from source code. Tests will not be executed

pytest --testomatio remove

Report

Run pytest and send test results into testomat.io.
Test can be sent to testomat.io without ids in your test code. If testomat.io failed to match tests by title, it will create new tests for the run

pytest --testomatio report

Debug

Run pytest with debug parameter to get test data collected in metadata.json file

pytest --testomatio debug

Launch

Create empty run and obtain its RUN_ID from testomat.io.

pytest --testomatio launch

Finish

Finish running or scheduled run on testomat.io. TESTOMATIO_RUN_ID environment variable is required.

TESTOMATIO_RUN_ID=***run_id*** pytest --testomatio finish

Additional options

Submitting Test Run Environment

To configure test environment, you can use additional option testRunEnv. The configured environment will be added to the test report. Use it with report command:

pytest --testomatio report --testRunEnv "windows11,chrome,1920x1080"

Environment values are comma separated, please use double quotation.

Clearing empty test suites

To automatically clean empty test suites on testomat.io you can use no-empty option. Use it with sync command:

pytest --testomatio sync --no-empty

Disable detaching tests

If a test from a previous import was not found on next import it is marked as “detached”. This is done to ensure that deleted tests are not staying in Testomatio while deleted in codebase. To disable this behaviour and don’t mark anything as detached on import use no-detach option. Use it with sync command:

pytest --testomatio sync --no-detach

Keeping original file structure

By default, when importing tests, testomat.io does not preserve original file structure. Use option keep-structure with sync command to keep original file structure:

pytest --testomatio sync --keep-structure

Import into given directory

By default, tests are imported into the root of the project. You can use directory option to specify directory to use for test file structure. Use this option with sync command:

pytest --testomatio sync --directory imported_tests

Note: keep-structure option takes precedence over directory option. If both are used keep-structure will be used.

Filter tests by id

You can filter tests by testomat.io id, using test-id option. You pass single or multiple ids to this option. Use this option with report command:

pytest --testomatio report --test-id "Tc0880217|Tfd1c595c"

Note: Test id should be started from letter “T”

Configuration with environment variables

You can use environment variable to control certain features of testomat.io

Basic configuration

Env variable	What it does	Examples
TESTOMATIO	Provides token for pytestomatio to access and push data to testomat.io. Required for sync and report commands	TESTOMATIO=tstmt_***** pytest —testomatio sync
TESTOMATIO_SYNC_LABELS	Assign labels to a test case when you synchronise test from code with testomat.io. Labels must exist in project and their scope must be enabled for tests	TESTOMATIO_SYNC_LABELS=“number:1,list:one,standalone” pytest —testomatio report
TESTOMATIO_CODE_STYLE	Code parsing style for test synchronization. If you are not sure, don’t set this variable. Default value is ‘default’	TESTOMATIO_CODE_STYLE=pep8 pytest —testomatio sync
TESTOMATIO_CI_DOWNSTREAM	If set, pytestomatio will not set or update build url for a test run. This is useful in scenarios where build url is already set in the test run by Testomat.io for test runs that a created directly on Testomat.io.	TESTOMATIO_CI_DOWNSTREAM=true pytest —testomatio report
TESTOMATIO_URL	Customize testomat.io url	TESTOMATIO_URL=https://custom.com/ pytest —testomatio report
BUILD_URL	Overrides build url run tests	BUILD_URL=http://custom.com/ pytest —testomatio report

Test Run configuration

Env variable	What it does	Examples
TESTOMATIO_TITLE	Name of a test run to create on testomat.io	TESTOMATIO_TITLE=“Nightly Smoke Tests” pytest —testomatio report
TESTOMATIO_RUN_ID	Id of existing test run to use for sending test results to	TESTOMATIO_RUN_ID=98dfas0 pytest —testomatio report
TESTOMATIO_RUNGROUP_TITLE	Create a group (folder) for a test run. If group already exists, attach test run to it	TESTOMATIO_RUNGROUP_TITLE=“Release 2.0” pytest —testomatio report
TESTOMATIO_ENV	Assign environment to a test run, env variant of testRunEnv option. Has a lower precedence than testRunEnv option.	TESTOMATIO_ENV=“linux,chrome,1920x1080” pytest —testomatio report
TESTOMATIO_LABEL	Assign labels to a test run. Labels must exist in project and their scope must be enabled for runs	TESTOMATIO_LABEL=“smoke,regression” pytest —testomatio report
TESTOMATIO_UPDATE_CODE	Send code of your test to Testomat.io on each run. If not enabled(default) assumes the code is pushed using sync command	TESTOMATIO_UPDATE_CODE=True pytest —testomatio report
TESTOMATIO_EXCLUDE_SKIPPED	Exclude skipped tests from the report	TESTOMATIO_EXCLUDE_SKIPPED=1 pytest —testomatio report
TESTOMATIO_PUBLISH	Publish run after reporting and provide a public URL	TESTOMATIO_PUBLISH=true pytest —testomatio report
TESTOMATIO_PROCEED	Do not finalize the run	TESTOMATIO_PROCEED=1 pytest —testomatio report
TESTOMATIO_SHARED_RUN	Report parallel execution to the same run matching it by title. If the run was created more than 20 minutes ago, a new run will be created instead.	TESTOMATIO_TITLE=“Run1” TESTOMATIO_SHARED_RUN=1 pytest —testomatio report
TESTOMATIO_SHARED_RUN_TIMEOUT	Changes timeout of shared run. After timeout, shared run won`t accept other runs with same name, and new runs will be created. Timeout is set in minutes, default is 20 minutes.	TESTOMATIO_TITLE=“Run1” TESTOMATIO_SHARED_RUN=1 TESTOMATIO_SHARED_RUN_TIMEOUT=10 pytest —testomatio report

S3 Bucket configuration

Env variable	Description
S3_REGION	Your S3 region
S3_ACCESS_KEY_ID	Your S3 access key ID
S3_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY	Your S3 secret access key
S3_BUCKET	Your S3 bucket name
S3_ENDPOINT	Your S3 endpoint
S3_BUCKET_PATH	Path to your bucket
TESTOMATIO_PRIVATE_ARTIFACTS	Store artifacts in a bucket privately

pytest.ini

In case you are using private testomat.io service, create pytest.ini file in your project root directory. Specify testomat.io url in it

[pytest]
testomatio_url = https://app.testomat.io

Submitting Test Artifacts

testomat.io does not store any screenshots, logs or other artifacts.

In order to manage them it is advised to use S3 Buckets (GCP Storage). https://docs.testomat.io/usage/test-artifacts/

Analyser needs to be aware of the cloud storage credentials. There are two options:

Enable Share credentials with testomat.io Reporter option in testomat.io Settings -> Artifacts.
Use environment variables ACCESS_KEY_ID, SECRET_ACCESS_KEY, ENDPOINT, BUCKET, BUCKET_PATH, REGION

You would need to decide when you want to upload your test artifacts to cloud storage

Upload page screenshot when test fails, using fixtures reference

# content of conftest.py
import pytest
import random
import os
from typing import Dict
from pytest import StashKey, CollectReport
from playwright.sync_api import Page

phase_report_key = StashKey[Dict[str, CollectReport]]()

@pytest.hookimpl(wrapper=True, tryfirst=True)
def pytest_runtest_makereport(item, call):
    rep = yield
    item.stash.setdefault(phase_report_key, {})[rep.when] = rep
    return rep


@pytest.fixture(scope="function")
def handle_artifacts(page: Page, request):
    yield
    report = request.node.stash[phase_report_key]
    if ("call" not in report) or report["setup"].failed or report["call"].failed:
        random_string = ''.join(random.choices(string.ascii_letters + string.digits, k=8))

        filename = f"{random_string}.png"
        screenshot_path = os.path.join(artifacts_dir, filename)
        page.screenshot(path=screenshot_path)
        # file_path - required, path to file to be uploaded
        # file_bytes - required, bytes of the file to be uploaded
        # key - required, file name in the s3 bucket
        # bucket_name - optional,name of the bucket to upload file to. Default value is taken from testomat.io
        artifact_url = pytest.testomatio.upload_file(screenshot_path, filename)
        # or
        # artifact_url = pytest.testomatio.upload_file_object(file_bytes, key, bucket_name)
        pytest.testomatio.add_artifacts(request.node, [artifact_url])
    page.close()

⚠️ Please take into account s3_connector available only after pytest_collection_modifyitems() hook is executed.

If you prefer to use pytest hooks - add pytest_runtest_makereport hook in your conftest.py file.

def pytest_runtest_makereport(item, call):
    artifact_url = pytest.testomatio.upload_file(screenshot_path, filename)
    pytest.testomatio.add_artifacts([artifact_url])

Cross-Platform Testing

The plugin supports reporting the same test multiple times in a single run. This is especially useful for Cross-Platform testing, when you run the same test on different environments. To use this feature you need to specify test run environment through TESTOMATIO_ENV environment variable or by using —testRunEnv option. Example:

TESTOMATIO=***api_key*** TESTOMATIO_RUN_ID=***run_id*** pytest --testomatio report --testRunEnv "os:ubuntu, integration"
TESTOMATIO=***api_key*** TESTOMATIO_RUN_ID=***run_id*** pytest --testomatio report --testRunEnv "os:windowns, integration"

Executing these commands will include the tests in the same run, but as separate instances. Each test will contain metadata with information about the test run environment.

Note: Only key:value envs will be passed into tests metadata
