🔧 pytest-envx

pytest-envx is a powerful and user-friendly plugin for pytest, allowing you to easily manage environment variables from configuration files like pyproject.toml and pytest.ini.

---

🚀 Features

• ✔️ Environment variable interpolation via templates
• ✔️ Load variables from .env files
• ✔️ Compatible with both pyproject.toml and pytest.ini
• ✔️ Easy to configure and use
• ✔️ Flexible support for overriding and loading order

---

⚡️ Installation

pip install pytest-envx

---

📦 Quick Start

Create a configuration file — either pyproject.toml ⚙️ or pytest.ini ⚙️ By default, pytest prioritizes pytest.ini ⚙️

✅ Example 1: Simple Variable

pyproject.toml ⚙️	pytest.ini ⚙️
[tool.pytest.ini_options] env = [ "HELLO='WORLD'" ]	[pytest] env = HELLO="WORLD"

test_example.py 🐍:

import os

def test_env_var():
    assert os.getenv("HELLO") == "WORLD"

---

✅ Example 2: Load from .env 🔐 files with override

.env-template 🔐	.env 🔐
NAME=ALICE LASTNAME=BAILER	NAME=BOB

pyproject.toml ⚙️	pytest.ini ⚙️
[tool.pytest.ini_options] envx_metadata = { paths_to_load = [".env-template", ".env"], override_load = true } env = [ "GREETING='Hello'" ]	[pytest] envx_metadata = {"paths_to_load": [".env-template", ".env"], "override_load": True} env = GREETING="Hello"

test_env_load.py 🐍:

import os

def test_env_loading():
    assert os.getenv("NAME") == "BOB"
    assert os.getenv("LASTNAME") == "BAILER"
    assert os.getenv("GREETING") == "Hello"

---

✅ Example 3: Load from .env 🔐 files without override

.env.default 🔐	.env.dev 🔐
MODE=default	MODE=development LEVEL=DEV

pyproject.toml ⚙️	pytest.ini ⚙️
[tool.pytest.ini_options] envx_metadata = { paths_to_load = [".env.default", ".env.dev"], override_load = false }	[pytest] envx_metadata = {"paths_to_load": [".env.default", ".env.dev"], "override_load": False}

test_priority.py 🐍:

import os

def test_env_priority():
    assert os.getenv("MODE") == "default"
    assert os.getenv("LEVEL") == "DEV"

✅ Example 4: Variable Interpolation

.env 🔐
USER=john PASS=secret HOST=db.local PORT=5432

pyproject.toml ⚙️	pytest.ini ⚙️
[tool.pytest.ini_options] envx_metadata = { paths_to_interpolate = [".env"] } env = [ "DB_URL_WITH_INTERPOLATION='postgresql://{%USER%}:{%PASS%}@{%HOST%}:{%PORT%}/app'", "WITHOUT_INTERPOLATION={'value': '{%USER%}', 'interpolate': False}", "NOT_FOUND='{%NOT_FOUND%}'" ]	[pytest] envx_metadata = {"paths_to_interpolate": [".env"]} env = DB_URL_WITH_INTERPOLATION="postgresql://{%USER%}:{%PASS%}@{%HOST%}:{%PORT%}/app" WITHOUT_INTERPOLATION={"value": "{%USER%}", "interpolate": False} NOT_FOUND = "{%NOT_FOUND%}"

test_interpolation.py 🐍:

import os

def test_interpolated_value():
    assert os.getenv("DB_URL_WITH_INTERPOLATION") == "postgresql://john:secret@db.local:5432/app"
    assert os.getenv("WITHOUT_INTERPOLATION") == "{%USER%}"
    assert os.getenv("NOT_FOUND") == "{%NOT_FOUND%}"
    assert os.getenv("USER") !=  "john"
    assert os.getenv("PASS") !=  "secret"
    assert os.getenv("HOST") !=  "db.local"
    assert os.getenv("PORT") !=  "5432"
