Overview

Test summary:

  • ./tests/test_* (pytest): Unit tests. These tests don't bring up any external processes.
  • ./tests/schema_registry/* (pytest): Tests related to Schema Registry that utilize a mock client and don't bring up any external processes.
  • ./tests/avro/* (pytest): Tests for the old Avro API. These tests don't bring up any external processes.
  • ./tests/integration/integration_test.py: Older integration tests, not built on pytest.
  • ./tests/integration/*, excluding integration_test.py (pytest): Integration tests that depend on Kafka.
  • ./tests/system: System tests.
  • ./tests/soak: Soak test.

Running the Tests

Note: Unless otherwise stated, all command, file and directory references are relative to the repo's root directory.

A python3 env suitable for running tests:

$ python3 -m venv venv_test
$ source venv_test/bin/activate
$ pip install -r tests/requirements.txt
$ python setup.py build
$ python setup.py install

When you're finished with it:

$ deactivate

Unit tests

"Unit" tests are the ones directly in the ./test directory. These tests do not require an active Kafka cluster.

You can run them selectively like so:

$ pytest -s -v tests/test_Producer.py

Or run them all with:

$ pytest -s -v tests/test_*.py

Note that the -v flag enables verbose output and -s flag disables capture of stderr and stdout (so that you see it on the console).

You can also use ./tests/run.sh to run the unit tests:

$ ./tests/run.sh unit

Integration tests

Integration tests are currently transitioning from one framework to another.

The Old Way

The original integration tests do not utilise pytest and are all specified in ./test/integration_test.py. These tests expect a Kafka cluster and Schema Registry instances to already be running.

The easiest way to arrange for this is:

./tests/docker/bin/cluster_up.sh

And also:

source ./tests/docker/.env

which sets environment variables referenced by ./tests/integration/testconf.json.

You can then run the tests as follows:

python ./tests/integration/integration_test.py ./tests/integration/testconf.json

Or selectively using via specifying one or more options ("modes"). You can see all of these via:

python ./tests/integration/integration_test.py --help

The New Way

The newer integration tests utilise pytest and define the kafka_cluster fixture (in ./tests/integration/conftest.py) which uses trivup to bring up a Kafka Cluster and Schema Registry instance automatically.

You can run these tests selectively like so:

pytest -v -s ./tests/integration/consumer/test_consumer_error.py

Bring your own cluster

If you would like to avoid creating / destroying a cluster each time you run a test and you have a test cluster running, you can set the BROKERS environment variable which will automatically make the integration tests use those brokers as the bootstrap.servers instead of creating a new cluster for each test run, e.g.:

$ export BROKERS=localhost:9092
# SR_URL is optional and only required for Schema-registry tests
$ export SR_URL=http://localhost:1234/

Troubleshooting

If for some reason these tests aren't working, you can add 'debug': True to the config property list in ./tests/integration/conftest.py to debug the cause.

Note that the following error is benign:

tests/integration/consumer/test_consumer_error.py::test_consume_error [2020-12-02 12:09:15.649905] KafkaBrokerApp-2: Failed to set RLIMIT_NOFILE(9223372036854775807,9223372036854775807): current limit exceeds maximum limit

Running with Tox

Tox can be used to test against various supported Python versions (py27, py36, py38):

  1. You need to have tox installed:

    pip install tox

  2. Uncomment the following line in tox.ini

    #python tests/integration/integration_test.py

  3. From top-level directory run:

    $ ./tests/run.sh tox
