.. _`non-python tests`:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Working with non-python tests
 | 
						|
====================================================
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. _`yaml plugin`:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
A basic example for specifying tests in Yaml files
 | 
						|
--------------------------------------------------------------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. _`pytest-yamlwsgi`: http://bitbucket.org/aafshar/pytest-yamlwsgi/src/tip/pytest_yamlwsgi.py
 | 
						|
.. _`PyYAML`: https://pypi.org/project/PyYAML/
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Here is an example ``conftest.py`` (extracted from Ali Afshnars special purpose `pytest-yamlwsgi`_ plugin).   This ``conftest.py`` will  collect ``test*.yaml`` files and will execute the yaml-formatted content as custom tests:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. include:: nonpython/conftest.py
 | 
						|
    :literal:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
You can create a simple example file:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. include:: nonpython/test_simple.yaml
 | 
						|
    :literal:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
and if you installed `PyYAML`_ or a compatible YAML-parser you can
 | 
						|
now execute the test specification:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code-block:: pytest
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    nonpython $ pytest test_simple.yaml
 | 
						|

.. regendoc:wipe
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
You get one dot for the passing ``sub1: sub1`` check and one failure.
 | 
						|
Obviously in the above ``conftest.py`` you'll want to implement a more
 | 
						|
interesting interpretation of the yaml-values.  You can easily write
 | 
						|
your own domain specific testing language this way.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. note::
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    ``repr_failure(excinfo)`` is called for representing test failures.
 | 
						|
    If you create custom collection nodes you can return an error
 | 
						|
    representation string of your choice.  It
 | 
						|
    will be reported as a (red) string.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
``reportinfo()`` is used for representing the test location and is also
 | 
						|
consulted when reporting in ``verbose`` mode:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code-block:: pytest
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    nonpython $ pytest -v

While developing your custom test collection and execution it's also
 | 
						|
interesting to just look at the collection tree:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code-block:: pytest
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    nonpython $ pytest --collect-only
 | 
						|
    =========================== test session starts ============================
