Set up test reporting with pytest

The following procedure demonstrates how to set up test reporting in AWS CodeBuild with the pytest testing framework.

The procedure requires the following prerequisites:

  • You have an existing CodeBuild project.

  • Your project is a Python project that is set up to use the pytest testing framework.

Add the following entry to either the build or post_build phase of your buildspec.yml file. This code automatically discovers tests in the current directory and exports the test reports to the file specified by <test report directory>/<report filename>. The report uses the JunitXml format.

      - python -m pytest --junitxml=<test report directory>/<report filename>

In your buildspec.yml file, add/update the following sections.

version: 0.2

phases:
  install:
    runtime-versions:
      python: 3.7
    commands:
      - pip3 install pytest
  build:
    commands:
      - python -m pytest --junitxml=<test report directory>/<report filename>
