Testing

For a fast test run using the available python, use pytest:

$ pytest tests

The test suite uses the following environment variables to connect to the database:

• POSTGRES_DB (default pgcopy_test)

• POSTGRES_HOST (default 5432)

• POSTGRES_PORT

• POSTGRES_USER

• POSTGRES_PASSWORD

For more thorough testing, tox with tox-docker will run tests on python versions 3.8 – 3.12 and postgresql versions 12 – 16:

$ tox

Additionally, the test suite can be run with no local requirements other than the ubiquitous docker:

$ docker-compose up pgcopy

Note

Tests for extension types will be skipped if the required db extension is not available.
