Overview

pspecs is a testing library that concentrates on making it easy to build test subjects, isolate test runs and write readable specifications

It has very few conventions and it provides integrations with established python testing tools like py.test or nose

Install

pip install pspecs

Basic structure - source

from pspecs import Context

class OrderSpec(Context):

    def let_quantity(self): return 10
    def let_money(self):
        return Money(10, 'USD')

    def let_order(self):
        return Order(self.quantity, self.money)

    class OrderTotal(Context):
        def let_total(self):
            return self.order.total()

        def it_should_account_for_quantity(self):
            assert self.total == 100

        class WithEmptyQuantity(Context):
            def let_quantity(self): return 0

            def it_should_be_zero(self):
                assert self.total == 0

    class OrderCurrency(Context):
        def let_currency(self):
            return self.order.currency()

        def it_should_be_dollars(self):
            assert self.currency == 'USD'

        class WithEuros(Context):
            def let_money(self):
                return Money(10, 'EUR')

            def it_should_be_euros(self):
                assert self.currency == 'EUR'
