jsnapy 1.1.0

JSNAPy 1.1.0 release

on Python PyPI

Feature addition:

• ignore-null attribute support via #170

  • Set it to True if you want to skip tests where nodes are not present in any of the specified xpaths in test.
  • refer example 5 and 6

  Sample Output
  

• stored snapshots can be used with snapcheck using --local option #172
  Example:

  jsnapy --snapcheck STORED -f config.yml --local
  Where STORED might have already been used by snap function to fetch snapshots

  jsnapy --snap STORED -f config.yml

• Operators for chained tests #178
  Now user can use AND, OR and NOT operators to chain their test cases. Final result will be decided depending on the mathematical calculation based on operators used. For more details refer: PR or wiki

• Docker image for JSNAPy

Feature enhancements:

• Added test based mail support #149
  Depending on test results user can decide on which condition of overall test result mail to be sent.

    mail:
       pass: <filename>
       fail: <filename>
       all: <filename>

• User defined path for jsnapy.cfg

  • The default location for jsnapy.cfg and logging.yml is /etc/jsnapy. User can change the default lookup location for jsnapy.cfg by setting JSNAPY_HOME environment variable.
  • Alternatively, one can keep custom jsnapy.cfg and logging.yml at ~/.jsnapy also.
  • Lookup order followed is: JSNAPY_HOME -> ~/.jsnapy -> /etc/jsnapy
  • Location of all the other custom configuration files parked at /etc/jsnapy can now be specified at the installation time. Doing so will modify the jsnapy.cfg file at /etc/jsnapy
  • Added option for the user to specify the default directory for snapshots, testfiles and custom configuration file directories during installation
  • Installation via pip:
    sudo pip install jsnapy --install-option="--install-data=~/Desktop/test_inst"

  Note User still need to use sudo to do the installation as we still create different config file at /etc/jsnapy
