cookies.bake()
pytest is a mature full-featured Python testing tool that provides easy
no boilerplate testing. Its hook-baesd customization system supports integration
of external plugins such as pytest-cookies.
This plugin comes with a cookies
fixture which is a wrapper for the
cookiecutter API for generating projects. It helps you verify that your
template is working as expected and takes care of cleaning up after running the
tests.
Usage
The cookies.bake()
method generates a new project from your template based on the
default values specified in cookiecutter.json
:
def test_bake_project(cookies):
result = cookies.bake(extra_context={'repo_name': 'helloworld'})
assert result.exit_code == 0
assert result.exception is None
assert result.project.basename == 'helloworld'
assert result.project.isdir()
It accepts the extra_context
keyword argument that will be
passed to cookiecutter. The given dictionary will override the default values
of the template context, allowing you to test arbitrary user input data.
Please see the Injecting Extra Context section of the
official cookiecutter documentation.
