pytest测试框架也是主流的一个测试框架，推荐使用该框架，对比unnitest框架来说，其效率更高

1.Pytest介绍

pytest测试框架也是主流的一个测试框架，推荐使用该框架，对比unnitest框架来说，其不需要像unittest那样单独创建类继承unittest.TestCase。它使用起来非常简单，只需要创建测试类或者测试文件，然后以test开头即可，pytest可以按照这个规则找到测试用例并执行。
pytest测试框架，主要有以下几个特点：

简单灵活，容易上手，文档丰富；
支持用简单的assert语句实现丰富的断言，无需复杂的self.assert*函数
支持参数化；
兼容unittest和 nose测试集
能够支持简单的单元测试和复杂的功能测试，还可应用到接口自动化测试（pytest+requests）中；
丰富的插件生态，具有很多第三方插件，并且可以自定义扩展，如pytest-Selenium（集成Selenium）等；
支持重复执行失败的case等；
方便和持续集成工具jenkins集成；
可以很好的和jenkins集成。

2.安装Pytest

pytest不是Python默认的package，需要手动安装。其同时可以在windows、unix系统上安装。最新的pytest版本为5.4.1，pytest5.4.1支持Python 3.5、3.6、3.7版本。本书采取（书籍资料包中）的Python版本为Python3.7，因此可以与pytest结合使用。
打开windows系统的cmd命令窗口，在命令行中运行以下命令：
pip install -U pytest

注：
通过cmd安装pytest，可能下载过程较长或安装过程报错中断，多尝试几次。

安装进度，如图所示。

如仍然安装不成功，可以指定国内镜像，如国内的清华大学开源软件镜像站，地址是： https://mirrors.tuna.tsinghua.edu.cn/，命令如下：
pip install --index https://mirrors.ustc.edu.cn/pypi/web/simple/ pytest
安装进度，如下所示。

general:
  -k EXPRESSION         only run tests which match the given substring expression. An expression is a Python evaluatable
                        expression where all names are substring-matched against test names and their parent classes.
                        Example: -k 'test_method or test_other' matches all test functions and classes whose name
                        contains 'test_method' or 'test_other', while -k 'not test_method' matches those that don't
                        contain 'test_method' in their names. -k 'not test_method and not test_other' will eliminate the
                        matches. Additionally keywords are matched to classes and functions containing extra names in
                        their 'extra_keyword_matches' set, as well as functions which have names assigned directly to
                        them. The matching is case-insensitive.
  -m MARKEXPR           only run tests matching given mark expression. example: -m 'mark1 and not mark2'.
  --markers             show markers (builtin, plugin and per-project ones).
  -x, --exitfirst       exit instantly on first error or failed test.
  --maxfail=num         exit after first num failures or errors.

3.Pytest案例实战

3.1. pytest基础案例

通过PyCharm在工程目录下，创建pytestDemo的Python package，Pytest的案例均存放在pytestDemo下。
pytest测试用例编写非常简单，pytest可以在不同的函数、包中发现用例，但pytest有如下约束。

文件名以test_（如：test_.py）开头或以_test（如： _test.py）结尾的py文件；
以test_开头的函数或test_开头的方法；
以Test开头的类，并且不能带有 init 方法；
要注意的是所有的包必须要有init.py文件(在PyCharm中会自动生成)。

3.1.1 创建基础待测方法

在pytestDemo下新建test_demo.py文件，代码如下：

def add(a,b):
    return  a + b

def test_add():
    assert add(2,3) == 5

3.1.2 运行测试方法

通过cmd进入到test_demo.py所在的文件夹下，然后运行pytest，如下所示。

E:\>cd pytestDemo
E:\pytestDemo>pytest
================================================= test session starts =================================================
platform win32 -- Python 3.7.5, pytest-5.4.1, py-1.8.1, pluggy-0.13.1
rootdir: E:\pytestDemo

test_demo.py .                                                                                                   [100%]
================================ 1 passed in 0.02s =============

将test_demo.py将代码进行变动，将实际值与期望值改成不一致，代码如下：

def add(a,b):
    return  a + b

def test_add():
    assert add(2,3) == 6

cmd进入到test_demo.py所在的文件夹下，然后运行pytest，如下所示。

E:\pytestDemo>pytest
======================= test session starts ===========================

test_demo.py:5: AssertionError
========================   short test summary info ==========================
FAILED test_demo.py::test_add - assert 5 == 6
==================== 1 failed in 0.06s ============================

3.2. 测试用例存放在类中

可将测试用例放在测试类中，通过执行测试类，而执行类中的测试用例。

3.2.1 优化测试代码

将test_demo.py将代码进行优化，代码如下：

def add(a, b):
    return a + b

  def minus(a, b):
    return a - b

class TestClass:
    def test_add(self):
        assert add(2, 3) == 5

    def test_minus(self):
        assert minus(3, 2) == 2

3.2.2 运行优化后的测试方法

cmd进入到test_demo.py所在的文件夹下，然后运行pytest，结果如下所示。

E:\pytestDemo>pytest
===================== test session starts ==========================
platform win32 -- Python 3.7.5, pytest-5.4.1, py-1.8.1, pluggy-0.13.1
