I am investigating usage of pyresttest for testing our api calls also new to python and stuck a bit on:

  • have a file with generator: 

     import pyresttest.validators as validators
 from pyresttest.binding import Context
 import sys
 import datetime


 def get_current_date_time():
     return datetime.datetime.now().isoformat()


 GENERATORS = {'date': get_current_date_time}

when i run this command, to use generator in my test case

pyresttest http://localhost:8181/ generator_test.yaml --import_extension 'date'

I got this:

 Traceback (most recent call last):   File "/usr/local/bin/pyresttest",
 line 4, in <module>
     __import__('pkg_resources').run_script('pyresttest==1.7.2.dev0', 'pyresttest')   File

     register_extensions(extensions)   File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pyresttest-1.7.2.dev0-py2.7.egg/pyresttest/resttest.py",
 line 748, in register_extensions
     module = __import__(ext, globals(), locals(), package) ImportError: No module named date

Am I missing something simple or it is a typo somewhere? Thanks.

  • Maybe `import_extension` does something other than what you think it does? – pvg Mar 08 '17 at 21:23
  • According to this doc https://github.com/svanoort/pyresttest/blob/master/extensions.md -> Extensions are specified for loadin at runtime with the --import_extensions argument it is exactly for that purpose. And I've tried solution suggested in the example with the project . `resttest.py https://api.github.com extension_use_test.yaml --import_extensions 'sample_extension' Test Group Successful SUCCEEDED: : 3/3 Tests Passed!` - works good. I'm very confused now. – Mariia Vitiuk Mar 09 '17 at 09:00

I see now my mistake :) I need to use name of the *.py file in --import_extensions.
like:

resttest.py https://api.github.com extension_use_test.yaml --import_extensions '[name_of_the_file_py_with_extensions]'
