gabbi Package

case Module

driver Module

suitemaker Module

fixture Module

Manage fixtures for gabbi at the test suite level.

class gabbi.fixture.GabbiFixture

Bases: object

A context manager that operates as a fixture.

Subclasses must implement start_fixture and stop_fixture, each of which contain the logic for stopping and starting whatever the fixture is. What a fixture is is left as an exercise for the implementor.

These context managers will be nested so any actual work needs to happen in start_fixture and stop_fixture and not in __init__. Otherwise exception handling will not work properly.

start_fixture()

Implement the actual workings of starting the fixture here.

stop_fixture()

Implement the actual workings of stopping the fixture here.

exception gabbi.fixture.GabbiFixtureError

Bases: Exception

Generic exception for GabbiFixture.

class gabbi.fixture.SkipAllFixture

Bases: GabbiFixture

A fixture that skips all the tests in the current suite.

start_fixture()

Implement the actual workings of starting the fixture here.

gabbi.fixture.nest(fixtures)

Nest a series of fixtures.

This is duplicated from nested in the stdlib, which has been deprecated because of issues with how exceptions are difficult to handle during __init__. Gabbi needs to nest an unknown number of fixtures dynamically, so the with syntax that replaces nested will not work.

handlers Module

handlers.base Module

Base classes for response and content handlers.

class gabbi.handlers.base.ContentHandler

Bases: ResponseHandler

A subclass of ResponseHandlers that adds content handling.

static accepts(content_type)

Return True if this handler can handler this type.

static dumps(data, pretty=False, test=None)

Return structured data as a string.

If pretty is true, prettify.

static load_data_file(test, file_path)

Return the string content of the file specified by the file_path.

static loads(data)

Create structured (Python) data from a stream.

If there is a failure decoding then the handler should repackage the error as a gabbi.exception.GabbiDataLoadError.

classmethod replacer(response_data, path)

Return the string that is replacing RESPONSE.

class gabbi.handlers.base.ResponseHandler

Bases: object

Add functionality for making assertions about an HTTP response.

A subclass may implement two methods: action and preprocess.

preprocess takes one argument, the TestCase. It is called exactly once for each test before looping across the assertions. It is used, rarely, to copy the test.output into a useful form (such as a parsed DOM).

action takes two or three arguments. If test_key_value is a list action is called with the test case and a single list item. If test_key_value is a dict then action is called with the test case and a key and value pair.

action(test, item, value=None)

Test an individual entry for this response handler.

If the entry is a key value pair the key is in item and the value in value. Otherwise the entry is considered a single item from a list.

is_regex(value)

Check if the value is formatted to looks like a regular expression.

Meaning it starts and ends with “/”.

preprocess(test)

Do any pre-single-test preprocessing.

test_key_suffix = ''

test_key_value = []

handlers.core Module

Core response handlers.

class gabbi.handlers.core.ForbiddenHeadersResponseHandler

Bases: ResponseHandler

Test that listed headers are not in the response.

action(test, forbidden, value=None)

Test an individual entry for this response handler.

If the entry is a key value pair the key is in item and the value in value. Otherwise the entry is considered a single item from a list.

test_key_suffix = 'forbidden_headers'

test_key_value = []

class gabbi.handlers.core.HeadersResponseHandler

Bases: ResponseHandler

Compare expected headers with actual headers.

If a header value is wrapped in / it is treated as a raw regular expression.

Headers values are always treated as strings.

action(test, header, value=None)

Test an individual entry for this response handler.

If the entry is a key value pair the key is in item and the value in value. Otherwise the entry is considered a single item from a list.

test_key_suffix = 'headers'

test_key_value = {}

class gabbi.handlers.core.StringResponseHandler

Bases: ResponseHandler

Test for matching strings in the the response body.

action(test, expected, value=None)

Test an individual entry for this response handler.

If the entry is a key value pair the key is in item and the value in value. Otherwise the entry is considered a single item from a list.

test_key_suffix = 'strings'

test_key_value = []

handlers.jsonhandler Module

handlers.yaml_disk_loading_jsonhandler Module

suite Module

A TestSuite for containing gabbi tests.

This suite has two features: the contained tests are ordered and there are suite-level fixtures that operate as context managers.

class gabbi.suite.GabbiSuite(tests=())

Bases: TestSuite

A TestSuite with fixtures.

The suite wraps the tests with a set of nested context managers that operate as fixtures.

If a fixture raises unittest.case.SkipTest during setup, all the tests in this suite will be skipped.

run(result, debug=False)

Override TestSuite run to start suite-level fixtures.

To avoid exception confusion, use a null Fixture when there are no fixtures.

start(result, tests=None)

Start fixtures when using pytest.

stop()

Stop fixtures when using pytest.

gabbi.suite.noop(*args)

A noop method used to disable collected tests.

runner Module

reporter Module

utils Module

exception Module

Gabbi specific exceptions.

exception gabbi.exception.GabbiDataLoadError

Bases: ValueError

An exception to alert when data streams cannot be loaded.

exception gabbi.exception.GabbiFormatError

Bases: ValueError

An exception to encapsulate poorly formed test data.

exception gabbi.exception.GabbiSyntaxWarning

Bases: SyntaxWarning

A warning about syntax that is not desirable.

httpclient Module

json_parser Module
