Create and Run Tests

Create tests within the tap_mailchimp/tests subfolder and then run:

uv run pytest

You can also test the tap-mailchimp CLI interface directly using uv run:

uv run tap-mailchimp --help

Testing with Meltano

Note: This tap will work in any Singer environment and does not require Meltano. Examples here are for convenience and to streamline end-to-end orchestration scenarios.

Use Meltano to run an EL pipeline:

# Test invocation:
uvx meltano invoke tap-mailchimp --version

# OR run a test `elt` pipeline:
uvx meltano run tap-mailchimp target-jsonl
