Goal

This page explained how to add test scripts based on Pytest to a repository and have Jenkins job to run.

Instructions

Steps

• Log into the Jenkins builder server

• Install PyTest on the builder server with following command:

  • pip install pytest==4.6.0 # 4.6.0 is the latest pytest version supporting Python 2

• Git clone the target repo: https://github.com/changtengfei/demo_github_jenkins_repo

• Create a folder in the root directory called “test“

• Create a file called “test_dummy.py“ under “test“ folder

• Write the test script following the document online at: http://pytest.org/en/latest/

  • Here is an example of test script

      import pytest
    import os
    
    def syscall(cmd):
        print '>>> {0}'.format(cmd)
        os.system(cmd)
    
    def test_compilation():
        result = syscall("echo compilation...")
        assert result == None
        
    def test_bootload():
        result = syscall("echo bootload...")
        assert result == None
        
    def test_communication():
        result = syscall("echo communication...")
        assert result == None

• Setup a Jenkins job (read Jenkins/GitHub Integration), under “Build Step”, create a script and run command pytest
