Thanks Raphael,
It is almost the thing that I want, however, I would like to be able to
pass a tuple/list to pytest_functions.
This way, I think, will allow me to instruct pytest to collect specific
set of function prefixes without the need to end all my test functions with
a specific suffix.
So instead of python_functions=*_check, something
like python_functions=[given, when, then, and, but] would be more desirable.
Thanks Dj,
I am also aware of pytest-bdd plugin, however, I think my particular
case can not be handled with this plugin.
To demonstrate further, I created this example BDD test written in
Jupyter.
https://github.com/ldiary/marigoso/blob/master/notes/an_example_of_using_jupyter_for_documenting_and_automating_bdd_style_tests.ipynb
My future plan is to write a pytest plugin that can discover and run
tests written like these in Jupyter, but I am just a novice python
programmer so I want to start small steps by first writing a script that
can copy and paste these into test functions pytest can collect.
Many thanks,
Ernesto D. Luzon Jr.
