ImportError while loading conftest - Python3 #7408
Description
I am trying to use pytest-django for writing my unit tests.
I have a project structure like:
cwweb/
accounts/
tests/
test_views.py
views.py
models.py
__init__.py
cwweb/
__init__.py
settings/
__init__.py
local.py
prod.py
src/
conftest.py
pytest.ini
manage.py
Now my pytest.ini looks like:
[pytest]
addopts = --reuse-db --nomigrations
DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE = cwweb.settings.local
Also, my conftest.py looks like:
import string
from random import choice, randint
import pytest
@pytest.fixture()
def test_password():
"""
generate_test_password
A fixture to generate strong test password
"""
characters = string.ascii_letters + string.punctuation + string.digits
return "".join(choice(characters) for _ in range(randint(8, 16)))
@pytest.fixture()
def create_test_user(db, django_user_model, test_password):
"""
create_test_user
"""
def make_user(**kwargs):
kwargs['password'] = test_password
return django_user_model.objects.create_user(**kwargs)
return make_user
@pytest.fixture()
def user_client(db, client, create_test_user, test_password):
"""
user_client
This fixture is used to get an authenticated user client and re-used wherever needed
"""
def create_authenticated_user():
"""
create_authenticated_user
"""
user_client_data = {
'firstName': 'CWK',
'middleName': 'Test',
'lastName': 'User',
'email': '[email protected]',
'primaryContact': '0000000000',
'is_verified': True,
}
user = create_test_user(**user_client_data)
client.login(username=user.username, password=user.password)
return client, user
return create_authenticated_user
Also, my test_views.py looks like:
import pytest
from django.urls import reverse
class TestAccountsViews(object):
@pytest.mark.django_db
def test_user_registration_status(self, user_client):
"""
test_user_registration_status
"""
url = reverse('check-user-registration')
response = user_client.get(url)
assert response.status == 200
When I issue a pytest command on my terminal from the directory where my conftest.py is situated I get:
pytest
Current Environment : local
ImportError while loading conftest '/home/waqas/Desktop/projects/cwweb/conftest.py'.
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'cwweb.conftest'
I have been banging my head against the wall since yesterday to get a solution to this problem.
I have googled my way into everything and did not find a solution which is when I decided to reach out to the community here.
What am I doing wrong guys? What am I missing here?
