Introduction

pytestqt

Requirements

Python 2.6 or later, including Python 3+.

Tested with pytest version 2.5.2.

Works with either PySide, PyQt4 or PyQt5, picking whichever is available on the system giving preference to the first one installed in this order:

  • PySide
  • PyQt4
  • PyQt5

To force a particular API, set the environment variable PYTEST_QT_API to pyside, pyqt4, pyqt4v2 or pyqt5. pyqt4v2 sets the PyQt4 API to version 2

Installation

The package may be installed by running:

pip install pytest-qt

Or alternatively, download the package from pypi, extract and execute:

python setup.py install

Both methods will automatically register it for usage in py.test.

Development

If you intend to develop pytest-qt itself, use virtualenv to activate a new fresh environment and execute:

git clone https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-qt.git
cd pytest-qt
python setup.py develop
pip install pyside # or pyqt4/pyqt5

Versioning

This projects follows semantic versioning.
