Fixture factories in PyTest - Interactive Code Practice

Practice - 5 Tasks

1fill in blank

easy

Complete the code to define a fixture factory that returns a function creating user dictionaries.

PyTest

import pytest

@pytest.fixture
def user_factory():
    def create_user(name):
        return {'name': [1]
    return create_user

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

Auser

B'name'

Ccreate_user

Dname

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Putting the key 'name' as the value instead of the variable name.

Using the function name instead of the parameter.

The inner function create_user takes name as argument and returns a dictionary with key 'name' and value from the argument name. So the blank should be filled with name.

2fill in blank

medium

Complete the code to use the fixture factory in a test function.

PyTest

def test_user_creation(user_factory):
    user = user_factory([1])
    assert user['name'] == 'Alice'

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

A'Alice'

B'Bob'

CAlice

Duser_factory

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Passing a variable name without quotes.

Passing a different string than 'Alice'.

The test expects the user name to be 'Alice'. So the factory should be called with the string 'Alice' to create the user.

3fill in blank

hard

Fix the error in the fixture factory to correctly accept an optional age parameter with default 30.

PyTest

import pytest

@pytest.fixture
def user_factory():
    def create_user(name, age=[1]):
        return {'name': name, 'age': age}
    return create_user

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

A30

B'30'

CNone

Dage

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using a string '30' instead of integer 30.

Using a variable name that is not defined.

The default value for the age parameter should be the integer 30, not a string or variable name.

4fill in blank

hard

Fill both blanks to create a fixture factory that returns a user with a default city and allows overriding it.

PyTest

import pytest

@pytest.fixture
def user_factory():
    def create_user(name, city=[1]):
        return {'name': name, 'city': [2]
    return create_user

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

A'New York'

Bcity

C'Los Angeles'

D'city'

Attempts:

3 left

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using the string 'city' as the dictionary value instead of the variable.

Not quoting the default city string.

The default city should be the string 'New York'. The dictionary value should use the parameter city to allow overriding.

5fill in blank

hard

Fill all three blanks to create a fixture factory that returns a user dictionary with name, age, and city, where age defaults to 25 and city defaults to 'Boston'.

PyTest

import pytest

@pytest.fixture
def user_factory():
    def create_user(name, age=[1], city=[2]):
        return {'name': name, 'age': [3], 'city': city}
    return create_user

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

A25

B'Boston'

Cage

D'25'

Attempts:

3 left

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using string '25' as default age instead of integer.

Using string 'age' in dictionary instead of variable.

Not quoting the city string.

The default age is the integer 25, the default city is the string 'Boston', and the dictionary uses the variable age for the age value.
