I wanted to write a simple BDD testing framework by myself, so I did. Inspired by behave and written in Python 3.8.

It also contains a HTML test reporter using cheetah3 template engine.

• Feature-level parallelism
• HTML test results reporter
• Execute features by path
• Filter features by tag (all/feature/scenario/example) by tag expressions @working and not @skippped
• Basic retry-test-on-failure functionality
• Attach files to steps
• Docstring parser
• Paranoid logging included

You can write and execute tests just fine, but a lot of quality-of-life stuff are WIP or not implemented at all. Test coverage is... sub-optimal at this time. Expect some bugs.

I wrote this just for fun/to gain some XP, and I'm not planning to work on this in a foreseeable future.

• feature files are in features/, subdirectories supported
• step implementations are in steps, must be a python module. subdirectories (submodules) supported
• when running tests, you can provide multiple paths into feature/, this can be used for simple test filtering
• more complex filtering can be done using gherkin tags and tag expressions like (not @broken and not @wip) and @production

• python main.py run subfolder/test.feature will run this specific feature file
• python main.py run --tags 'not @broken' -p 4 will skip any feature files tagged with @broken tag, and will run features 4 at a time
• python main.py run --scenario-tags 'not @wip' --failed-repeat-count 1 will skip any scenarios marked with @wip tag and will repeat tests (scenarios) if they fail
• add --html-report to generate a HTML report
• python main.py show-html will start a local server serving the HTML report

For test and step examples, check feature files in features/tests/ and steps in steps/tests/. The actual "unit" tests using these are in tasmaium/tests/.

                                  Generate a HTML report.
  --port INTEGER                  show-html: Run HTML report server on this
                                  port.  [default: 6789]
  --help                          Show this message and exit.

There are some unittest tests (more coverage required) and some E2E tests (for HTML reporter) in tasmanium/tests/. For E2E, a remote selenium server is expected to be running.

The E2E test(s) click on nearly everything, so they might take a while to finish.

• Implement the TODO methods in Context.
• Importing of step submodules started importing nonexistent stuff sometimes.
• Python - do not keep attachments in memory.
• HTML reporter - do not keep attachments in memory.
• HTML reporter - improve JS performance on large test suites.
• Fix Must provide filename for images error in attach_image.
