Testing

This project uses the most fabulous testing tools for Python:

• pytest
• pytest-cov
• pytest-pep8
• pytest-sugar
• flexmock
• betamax

Run tests

Run tests simply by:

python setup.py test

or (if you have installed dependencies):

python -m pytest [options]
pytest [options]

Betamax cassettes

Betamax cassettes are stored in tests/fixtures/cassettes directory. If you are not connected to the internet, Twitter API is not working and/or you don’t have own API credentials you will use (replay) them in order to test API client.

If you want to run your own cassettes, you need to setup system variables

• API_KEY
• API_SECRET

Your test command then might look like:

API_KEY=<YOUR_API_KEY> API_SECRET=<YOUR_API_SECRET> \
python setup.py test
