    This document discusses unit testing in Python. It explains that unit testing involves testing individual code modules to check for errors. The Python unittest module is used for unit testing and provides assert functions to check conditions. Several examples are given of writing unit test cases using assert statements and the unittest module to test the sum() function. The document also briefly discusses test runners like unittest, nose, and pytest that automate running tests and reporting results.

    What is the Python unittest?

    Python provides the unittest module to test the unit of source code. The unittest plays an
    essential role when we are writing the huge code, and it provides the facility to check whether
    the output is correct or not.

    Normally, we print the value and match it with the reference output or check the output
    manually.

    Python testing framework uses Python's built-in assert() function which tests a particular
    condition. If the assertion fails, an AssertionError will be raised. The testing framework will then
    identify the test as Failure. Other exceptions are treated as Error.
    The following three sets of assertion functions are defined in unittest module −

     Basic Boolean Asserts


     Comparative Asserts

     Asserts for Collections

    Basic assert functions evaluate whether the result of an operation is True or False. All the assert
    methods accept a msg argument that, if specified, is used as the error message on failure.
    You can write both integration tests and unit tests in Python. To write a unit test for the built-in
    function sum(), you would check the output of sum() against a known output.

    For example, here’s how you check that the sum() of the numbers (1, 2, 3) equals 6:

    >>> assert sum([1, 2, 3]) == 6, "Should be 6"

    This will not output anything on the REPL because the values are correct.

    If the result from sum() is incorrect, this will fail with an AssertionError and the
    message "Should be 6". Try an assertion statement again with the wrong values to see
    an AssertionError:

    >>> assert sum([1, 1, 1]) == 6, "Should be 6"


    In the REPL, you are seeing the raised AssertionError because the result of sum() does not
    match 6. (most recent call last):
    Traceback
    File "<stdin>",
    Instead of testing line 1, in
    on the REPL, you’ll want to put this into a new Python file called test_sum.py
    and
    <module>
    executeAssertionError:
    it again: Should

    def test_sum():
    assert sum([1, 2, 3]) == 6, "Should be 6"

    ifname== " main ": test_sum() print("Everything passed")

    Now you have written a test case, an assertion, and an entry point (the command line). You can
    now execute this at the command line:

    (A Constituent College of Somaiya Vidyavihar


    KJSCE/IT/SYBTECH/SEM III/PL1(Python)-

    $ python
    test_sum.py

    You can see the successful result, Everything passed.

    In Python, sum() accepts any iterable as its first argument. You tested with a list. Now test with a
    tuple as well. Create a new file called test_sum_2.py with the following code:

    def test_sum():
    assert sum([1, 2, 3]) == 6, "Should be 6"

    def test_sum_tuple():
    assert sum((1, 2, 2)) == 6, "Should be 6"

    ifname== " main ": test_sum() test_sum_tuple()


    print("Everything passed")

    When you execute test_sum_2.py, the script will give an error because the sum() of (1, 2, 2) is 5, not 6. The resul

    $ python test_sum_2.py Traceback (most recent call last):


    File "test_sum_2.py", line 9, in <module> test_sum_tuple()
    File "test_sum_2.py", line 5, in test_sum_tuple assert sum((1, 2, 2)) == 6, "Should be 6"
    AssertionError: Should be 6

    Here you can see how a mistake in your code gives an error on the console with some
    information on where the error was and what the expected result was.

    Writing tests in this way is okay for a simple check, but what if more than one fails? This is
    where test runners come in. The test runner is a special application designed for running tests,

    checking the output, and giving you tools for debugging and diagnosing tests and applications.

    Choosing a Test Runner

    Python contains many test runners. The most popular build-in Python library is
    called unittest. The unittest is portable to the other frameworks. Consider the following three top
    most test runners.

     unittest
     nose Or nose2
     pytest

    unittest

    The unittest is built into the Python standard library since 2.1. The best thing about the unittest, it comes with bot

    The code must be written using the classes and functions.


    The sequence of distinct assertion methods in the TestCase class apart from the built-in asserts statements.
    Let's implement the above example using the unittest case.

    Example -

    import unittest
    class TestingSum(unittest.TestCase):

    def test_sum(self):
    self.assertEqual(sum([2, 3, 5]), 10, "It should be 10")
    def test_sum_tuple(self):
    self.assertEqual(sum((1, 3, 5)), 10, "It should be 10")

    if name == ' main


    ': unittest.main()

    Output:

    .F
    -
    FAIL: test_sum_tuple (__main .TestingSum)
    --
    Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "<string>", line 11, in test_sum_tuple
    AssertionError: 9 != 10 : It should be 10

    Ran 2 tests in 0.001s

    FAILED (failures=1)
    Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "<string>", line 14, in <module>
    File "/usr/lib/python3.8/unittest/main.py", line 101, in init
    self.runTests()
    File "/usr/lib/python3.8/unittest/main.py", line 273, in runTests
    sys.exit(not self.result.wasSuccessful())
    SystemExit: True

    As we can see in the output, it shows the dot(.) for the successful execution and F for the one
    failure.
