Practice - 5 Tasks

Complete the code to import the pytest module correctly.

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Importing the wrong module like unittest or os.

We import pytest to use its features for testing and configuration.

2fill in blank

medium

Complete the code to define a pytest fixture that provides a fixed value.

PyTest

@pytest.fixture
def fixed_value():
    return [1]

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

A'random'

B42

CNone

DTrue

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Returning None or a string instead of a fixed number.

The fixture returns a fixed value 42 to standardize test input.

3fill in blank

hard

Fix the error in the test function to use the fixture correctly.

PyTest

def test_fixed(fixed_value):
    assert fixed_value [1] 42

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

A<

B!=

C==

D>

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using != or comparison operators that cause test failure.

The test asserts that the fixture value equals 42 to confirm standard behavior.

4fill in blank

hard

Fill both blanks to configure pytest to stop after first failure and show detailed info.

PyTest

def pytest_addoption(parser):
    parser.addoption('--maxfail', default=[1], help='Stop after max failures')
    parser.addoption('--tb', default=[2], help='Traceback style')

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

A1

B'short'

C'long'

D0

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using maxfail=0 (no stop) or tb='short' (less info).

Setting maxfail=1 stops tests after one failure. Using tb='long' shows detailed tracebacks.

5fill in blank

hard

Fill all three blanks to create a pytest.ini file content that sets test paths, disables warnings, and sets log level.

PyTest

[pytest]
testpaths = [1]
filterwarnings = [2]
log_cli_level = [3]

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

CINFO

Dsrc

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Setting testpaths to 'src' or not filtering warnings.

The testpaths points to the tests folder. filterwarnings disables deprecation warnings. log_cli_level sets logging to INFO level.
