Multiple stands¶

This is an example of running multiple stands on one PC.

The example implements the launch of two stands and three CouchDB Instances.

Each stand will record reports on the conducted testing in the CouchDB Instance assigned to it in the runstore and statestore databases. The third CouchDB Instance is needed to store reports in the report database on each conducted test of each stand.

You can learn more about storing reports here Couchdb instance.

projects¶

Create 2 separate projects.

hardpy init tests_1

hardpy init tests_2 --database-port 5985 --frontend-port 8001

databases¶

For the third database, you can use hardpy init and delete all files except the database folder and the docker-compose.yaml file.

hardpy init third_database --database-port 5986

conftest.py¶

Modify conftest.py file in each project. Contains settings and fixtures for all tests:

The function of generating a report and recording it in the database save_report_to_couchdb;
The list of actions that will be performed after testing is filled in function fill_actions_after_test;

To store reports from all booths in the third CouchDB Instance, specify the port numbers of this CouchDB Instance in the file conftest.py in the folder of each stand.

import pytest
from hardpy import (
    CouchdbLoader,
    CouchdbConfig,
    get_current_report,
)

def save_report_to_couchdb():
    report = get_current_report()
    if report:
        loader = CouchdbLoader(CouchdbConfig(port=5986))
        loader.load(report)

@pytest.fixture(scope="session", autouse=True)
def fill_actions_after_test(post_run_functions: list):
    post_run_functions.append(save_report_to_couchdb)
    yield

5986 - port of the database with reports

dialog box¶

If you want to use the dialog box in multiple stands on the same computer, you need to modify a socket port. By default, hardpy uses port 6525 to pass data to the running pytest. But if you run multiple stands, the 6525 socket port will be busy.

Example:

hardpy init tests_2 --database-port 5985 --frontend-port 8001 --socket-port 6526

how to start¶

Start all databases via docker compose.
Launch both project via hardpy run <project_name>.
