Buildkite Test Collector for Python (Beta)

The official Python adapter for Buildkite Test Analytics which collects information about your tests.

⚒ Supported test frameworks: pytest.

📦 Supported CI systems: Buildkite, GitHub Actions, CircleCI, and others via the BUILDKITE_ANALYTICS_* environment variables.

👉 Installing

1. Create a test suite, and copy the API token that it gives you.

2. Add buildkite-test-collector to your list of dev dependencies in setup.py

        extras_require={
            "dev": [
                "buildkite-test-collector"
            ]
        }

3. Set up your API token

Add the BUIDLKITE_ANALYTICS_TOKEN environment variable to your build system's environment.

4. Run your tests

Run your tests like normal. Note that we attempt to detect the presence of several common CI environments, however if this fails you can set the CI environment variable to any value and it will work.

$ pytest

5. Verify that it works

If all is well, you should see the test run in the test analytics section of the Buildkite dashboard.
