py3-test-xdist-3.8.0

py.test xdist plugin for distributed testing

Back to search · Project homepage

Description

The pytest-xdist plugin extends py.test with some unique test execution modes: Test run parallelization: if you have multiple CPUs or hosts you can use those for a combined test run. This allows to speed up development or to use special resources of remote machines. --boxed: run each test in a boxed subprocess to survive SEGFAULTS or otherwise dying processes --looponfail: run your tests repeatedly in a subprocess. After each run py.test waits until a file in your project changes and then re-runs the previously failing tests. This is repeated until all tests pass after which again a full run is performed. Multi-Platform coverage: you can specify different Python interpreters or different platforms and run tests in parallel on all of them.
