使用pytest，我可以在测试功能之外获得夹具值吗？

Question

I am using parametrizing tests, to test 2 different data sets. For example like this. some_data() functions return test data.

test_data = [
    (some_data1_v1(), some_data2_v2()),
    (some_data1_v2(), some_data2_v2())
]

@pytest.mark.parametrize('a,b', test_data)
def test_fn(a,b):
    pass

But for some tests, that checks only general behavior, I don't need to test 2 data sets, because both sets have appropriate general data. I want to convert some_data1_v1() function to fixture and use it in test, like this

def test_fn2(some_data1_v1):
    pass

If I will do it, then call some_data1_v1() during test_data list construction raise exception Fixtures are not meant to be called directly...

So instead this

def test_fn2(some_data1_v1):
    pass

I do like this

@pytest.mark.parametrize('some_data1_v1', [some_data1_v1()])
def test_fn2(some_data1_v1):
    pass

This allow me to have one source of test data - "fake fixtures" (usual functions that return data), and pass test data in test_data list (first example or last example). But I think my approach to store data in usual functions is break "fixture abstraction".

Is there a better approach, to do what I do?

Answer 1

You can use a parametrized fixture . request.param refers to the specific entry in the params sequence

For example:

@pytest.fixture(params=(1, 2, 3))
def fix1(request):
    return request.param


@pytest.fixture(params=(4, 5, 6))
def fix2(request):
    return request.param


def test1(fix1, fix2):
    print(fix1, fix2)


def test2(fix1):
    print(fix1)

And execution:

$ pytest t.py

...
