v0.1.0 - Initial Release

pytest-depper v0.1.0

🎉 First public release of pytest-depper!

What is pytest-depper?

Smart test selection based on AST-level code dependency analysis. Run only the tests you need, not all the tests you have.

Features

✅ No cache required - Works immediately on fresh branches
✅ AST-level dependency analysis - Understands your code structure
✅ Git integration - Automatically diffs with main branch
✅ Pytest plugin - Use as pytest --depper
✅ CLI tool - Standalone pytest-depper command
✅ Transitive dependencies - Traces imports through your entire codebase

Installation

pip install pytest-depper

Quick Start

# Run only tests affected by changes
pytest --depper

# Show detailed dependency analysis
pytest --depper --depper-debug

# CLI analysis without running tests
pytest-depper --list-only

Documentation

• PyPI Package
• Full README
• Quick Start Guide
• Contributing Guide

Key Advantages

• vs pytest-testmon: No cache required, works on fresh clones
• vs pytest-picked: Analyzes transitive dependencies, not just direct changes
• vs manual selection: Automated, precise, and never misses a dependency

Example

Change 8 lines in a 3000-line file with 2000 tests? pytest-depper runs only the ~20 affected tests instead of all 2000.

76x faster for typical changes!
