PyTest-Cobra PyPI - Python Version

PyTest plugin for testing Smart Contracts for Ethereum blockchain.

Build Status PyPI Version GitHub License Github Date PyPI Wheel Donate with Ethereum

Dependency

This library requires the solc executable to be present.

Only versions >=0.4.2 are supported and tested though this library may work with other versions.

solc installation instructions

Install Solidity compiler (solc) using Node Package Manager(npm)

npm install -g solc

or for Ubuntu(Linux)

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ethereum/ethereum
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install solc

Quickstart

Installation

pip install pytest-cobra

Development

Clone the repository and then run

pip install -e . -r requirements.txt

Usage

Execute your test suite

Example MetaCoin picture

# MetaCoin Testing

# cobra is pytest fixture
def test_metacoin(cobra):

    # Getting Contract Factory by name
    metacoin = cobra.contract('MetaCoin')
    
    # Getting Contract Instance of MetaCoin
    metacoin = metacoin.deploy()

    assert metacoin.getBalance(cobra.accounts[0]) == 10000

Running test from Solidity file (.sol)

pytest --cobra MetaCoin.sol

Optional commands

Import path remappings

solc provides path aliasing allow you to have more reusable project configurations.

pytest --cobra MetaCoin.sol --import_remappings ["zeppeling=/my-zeppelin-checkout-folder"]
Allow paths
pytest --cobra MetaCoin.sol --allow_paths "/home/meheret,/user,/"

Running test from compiled Contracts Json file (.json)

Compile your contracts into a package (soon to be ethPM-compliant)

solc --combined-json abi,bin,bin-runtime contracts/ > MetaCoin.json

Testing Contracts.json

pytest --cobra MetaCoin.json

Running test from Yaml file (.yaml)

test:
  artifact_path: "./build/contracts/"
  test_paths: ["./tests"]
  contracts: [
    contract: {
        artifact: "Contract.json",
        links: ["Contract.json"]
    }
  ]
