Using pytest with OpenFaaS

Start the project

$ mkdir pytest-sample
$ cd pytest-sanmple
$ faas-cli template store pull python3-flask
$ mv calc.yml stack.yml

Note Don't forget to add this section to your stack file so that the faas-cli will know how to automatically pull the template

configuration:
  templates:
    - name: python3-flask
      source: https://github.com/openfaas/python-flask-template

Setup the local python environment

I use conda for my local virtual environments, but you can of course use virtualenv or venv (see also RealPython's primer on virtual environments).

In short this creates an isolated and repeatable development environment which you can delete and recreate if you need.

$ conda create -n pytest-sample tox
$ conda activate pytest-sample
$ cat <<EOF >> requirements.txt
pydantic==1.7.3
flask==1.1.2
EOF
$ cat <<EOF >> dev.txt
tox
pytest
black
pylint
EOF
$ conda install --yes --file requirements.txt
$ conda install --yes --file dev.txt

Now we are ready to develop the calculator.

Add the first tests

Let's start with some simple tests:

$ touch calc/handler_test.py

then add the following test cases for a couple of our happy paths

import calc.handler as h


class TestParsing:
    def test_operation_addition(self):
        req = '{"op": "+", "var1": "1.0", "var2": 0}'
        resp, code = h.handle(req)
        assert code == 200
        assert resp["value"] == 1.0

    def test_operation_multiplication(self):
        req = '{"op": "*", "var1": "100.01", "var2": 1}'
        resp, code = h.handle(req)
        assert code == 200
        assert resp["value"] == 100.01

At this point, we have followed normal conventions for pytest, by default, pytest will look for files that match the pattern *_test.py and then the run the functions that match test_* (including matching methods if the class is named Test*, which is what we did above).

Now, we can run our test and see all of the errors in their wonderful glory

In this case we get a value error because our handler function only returns a string, not a dictionary and a status code like the test expects. These test cases are expecting that the handler returns something that looks like this

return {"value": 1.1}, 200

This return value works with Flask, it will json serialize the dictionary and set the status code to 200 for us. Like the above snippet and run pytest again, the we get a new error, a value error because we got the wrong calculation result

Adding `tox`

Before we fix the test, we want to setup one more thing: tox: toxprovides a unified set of tooling that will run pytest for us. This provides a standardized interface that we will use later in CI. In fact, it ensures we are running exactly the same thing in CI and our local dev environment, hopefully reducing the numer of "Actually fix CI" commit messages. Later, if you decide that you prefer nose or some other testing tool or if you application is even more complex and requires pre-test configuration -- we can manage that through tox.

Create a calc/tox.ini file that looks like

# calc/tox.ini
[tox]
# list the testenv to run by default
envlist = lint,test
skipsdist = true

[testenv:test]
deps =
  pytest
  -rrequirements.txt
commands =
  # run unit tests
  pytest

[testenv:lint]
deps =
  flake8
commands =
  # stop the build if there are Python syntax errors or undefined names
  flake8 . --count --select=E9,F63,F7,F82 --show-source --statistics --extend-exclude template
  # exit-zero treats all errors as warnings. The GitHub editor is 127 chars wide
  flake8 . --count --exit-zero --max-complexity=10 --max-line-length=127 --statistics --extend-exclude template

This configures tox to create two environments and run our tests and flake8. Now we can test and lint our calc function using

cd calc
tox

or just run the tests using

$ cd calc
$ tox -q -e test

The working implementation

Jumping forward a bit, here is the final implementation. I have used the enum package and pydantic to help simplify the validation and parsing of requests into my internal Calculation model

from pydantic import BaseModel, ValidationError
from enum import Enum, unique
from typing import Callable


@unique
class OperationType(Enum):
    ADD = "+"
    SUBTRACT = "-"
    MULTIPLY = "*"
    DIVIDE = "/"
    POWER = "^"


class Caclucation(BaseModel):
    op: OperationType
    var1: float
    var2: float

    def execute(self) -> float:
        if self.op is OperationType.ADD:
            return self.var1 + self.var2

        if self.op is OperationType.SUBTRACT:
            return self.var1 - self.var2

        if self.op is OperationType.MULTIPLY:
            return self.var1 * self.var2

        if self.op is OperationType.DIVIDE:
            return self.var1 / self.var2

        if self.op is OperationType.POWER:
            return self.var1 ** self.var2

        raise ValueError("unknown operation")



def handle(req) -> (dict, int):
    """handle a request to the function
    Args:
        req (str): request body
    """

    try:
        c = Caclucation.parse_raw(req)
    except ValidationError as e:
        return {"message": e.errors()}, 422
    except Exception as e:
        return {"message": e}, 500

    return {"value": c.execute()}, 200

Now our tests will pass

$ tox -q -e test

Testing error cases

We can even extend our test cases to cover validation errors. Because we using pydantic and we are returning {"message": e.errors()}, these tests look like this

def test_operation_parsing_error_on_empty_obj(self):
    req = '{}'

    resp, code = h.handle(req)
    assert code == 422
    # should be a list of error
    errors = resp.get("message", [])
    assert len(errors) == 3
    assert errors[0].get("loc") == ('op', )
    assert errors[0].get("msg") == "field required"

    assert errors[1].get("loc") == ('var1', )
    assert errors[1].get("msg") == "field required"

    assert errors[2].get("loc") == ('var2', )
    assert errors[2].get("msg") == "field required"

def test_operation_parsing_error_on_unknown_operation(self):
    req = '{"op": "foo", "var1": "1.0", "var2": 0}'
    resp, code = h.handle(req)
    assert code == 422

    # should be a list of error
    errors = resp.get("message", [])
    assert len(errors) == 1
    assert errors[0].get("loc") == ('op', )
    assert errors[0].get("msg") == (
        "value is not a valid enumeration member; permitted: "
        "'+', '-', '*', '/', '^'"
    )

Running this in CI

I've added a Github Action Workflow to my sample repo. It is based on the sample testing workflow that Github provides for Python and the function workflow from Serverless for Everyone

This workflow will test and build your function in parallel. The resulting Docker image is pushed to Docker Container Registry.

NOTE you need to configure the DOCKER_PASSWORD secret for your Github repo for this workflow to work correctly.

Try the function

$ faas-cli deploy
$  echo '{"op":"+", "var1":1, "var2": 2}' | faas-cli invoke calc
{"value":3.0}
