StandCloud

This is an example of using pytest-hardpy functions, storing the result to StandCloud. This example is similar to Minute parity, but the test results are stored in StandCloud instead of CouchDB. The code for this example can be seen inside the hardpy package StandCloud.

After testing is complete, data is sent to StandCloud by setting the autosync to true in the [stand_cloud] section of the hardpy.toml file, and by setting the value of the api_key variable. If there is no connection to StandCloud, HardPy will attempt to send data to StandCloud at the specified autosync_timeout interval (in minutes).

how to start

  1. Login to standcloud.io.
  2. Create a company or login to an existing one.
  3. Create and copy the API key.
  4. Launch hardpy init stand_cloud --sc-api-key <your_api_key> --sc-autosync or hardpy init stand_cloud and manually modify the [stand_cloud] section in hardpy.toml.
  5. Launch CouchDB instance.
  6. Modify the files described below. Copying the hardpy.toml file will suffice for sending data to StandCloud after testing.
  7. Launch hardpy run stand_cloud.

conftest.py

  • The example of devices used as a fixture in driver_example;
import pytest
from driver_example import DriverExample

@pytest.fixture(scope="session")
def driver_example():
    example = DriverExample()
    yield example

driver_example.py

import datetime

class DriverExample:
    @property
    def current_minute(self):
        current_time = datetime.datetime.now()
        return int(current_time.strftime("%M"))

test_1.py

  • The name of the test module for the web interface is set to pytest.mark.module_name;
  • The name of the test cases for the web interface is set to pytest.mark.case_name;
  • The device under test (DUT) info is stored in the database in test_dut_info;
  • The test stand info is store in the database in test_stand_info;

    hardpy.set_stand_info(stand_info)
    hardpy.set_message(f"Stand name: {test_stand_name}")
    assert True

test_2.py

Contains basic tests:

  • The name of the test module for the web interface is set to pytest.mark.module_name;
  • The name of the test cases for the web interface is set to pytest.mark.case_name;
  • An example of using a driver to get the current minute in test_minute_parity;
  • An example of saving a test case measurement to the database using set_case_measurement and NumericMeasurement;
  • An example of using ErrorCode.

    hardpy.set_message("Testing ended", "updated_status")
    assert True

manual StandCloud syncronization

If you want to control the sending of reports to StandCloud yourself, the following code, which you can add to conftest.py, will allow you to do so.

Remember to also set autosync=false in the stand_cloud section of the hardpy.toml file.

# conftest.py
from http import HTTPStatus

import pytest
from driver_example import DriverExample

from hardpy import (
    StandCloudError,
    StandCloudLoader,
    get_current_report,
    set_operator_message,
)

@pytest.fixture(scope="session")
def driver_example():
    example = DriverExample()
    yield example

def finish_executing():
    report = get_current_report()
    if report:
        try:
            loader = StandCloudLoader()
            response = loader.load(report)
            if response.status_code != HTTPStatus.CREATED:
                set_operator_message(
                    "Report not uploaded to StandCloud, "
                    f"status code: {response.status_code}, text: {response.text}",
                )
        except StandCloudError as exc:
            set_operator_message(f"{exc}")

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