Test multiple applications at the same time

It is possible to test multiple applications in one test method. For this you will have to write multiple sections in the funq.conf configuration file.

[applitest]
executable = ../player_tester
aliases = applitest.aliases
funq_port = 10000

[applitest2]
executable = /path/to/my/program
funq_port = 10001

Important

Be careful to specify different ports for each application !

Let’s see the test code now:

from funq.testcase import MultiFunqTestCase

class MyTestCase(MultiFunqTestCase):
    # wanted configurations
    __app_config_names__ = ('applitest', 'applitest2')

    def test_my_first_test(self):
        # FunqClient objects will then be accessible with a dict:
        # - self.funq['applitest'] to interact with "applitest"
        # - self.funq['applitest2'] to interact with "applitest2"
        pass

Note

There is some differences when interacting with multiples applications at the same time:

• using funq.testcase.MultiFunqTestCase
• using __app_config_names__ instead of __app_config_name__
• self.funq becomes a dict where keys are configuration names and associated values are instances of funq.client.FunqClient.

Note

The number testables applications at the same time is not limited.
