Set up Python Testing Infrastructure

Summary

This PR establishes a complete Python testing infrastructure for the project using Poetry as the package manager and pytest as the testing framework.

Changes Made

  • Package Management: Added pyproject.toml with Poetry configuration set to package-mode disabled (appropriate for non-Python package projects)
  • Testing Dependencies: Installed core testing packages as development dependencies:
    • pytest (v7.4.0+) - Main testing framework
    • pytest-cov (v4.1.0+) - Coverage reporting
    • pytest-mock (v3.11.1+) - Mocking utilities
  • Testing Configuration: Comprehensive pytest and coverage settings including:
    • Test discovery patterns
    • Coverage thresholds and reporting formats (HTML, XML, terminal)
    • Custom markers for unit, integration, and slow tests
    • Strict options and warning filters
  • Directory Structure: Created proper testing hierarchy:
    tests/
    ├── __init__.py
    ├── conftest.py
    ├── test_infrastructure.py
    ├── unit/
    │   └── __init__.py
    └── integration/
        └── __init__.py
    
  • Shared Fixtures: Added comprehensive fixtures in conftest.py:
    • temp_dir and temp_file for file system testing
    • mock_env_vars for environment variable mocking
    • sample_config, sample_yaml_content, sample_json_content for test data
    • Project structure helpers (project_root, charts_dir, manifests_dir)
  • Validation Tests: Created test_infrastructure.py to verify the setup works correctly
  • Development Scripts: Poetry commands for running tests (poetry run pytest)
  • .gitignore Updates: Added testing artifacts, build files, and Claude Code entries

Testing Infrastructure Components

Running Tests

# Install dependencies
poetry install

# Run all tests
poetry run pytest

# Run with coverage
poetry run pytest --cov

# Run specific test types
poetry run pytest -m unit
poetry run pytest -m integration
poetry run pytest -m slow

# Run tests in specific directories
poetry run pytest tests/unit/
poetry run pytest tests/integration/

Coverage Reporting

  • Terminal output with missing line indicators
  • HTML report generated in htmlcov/
  • XML report for CI/CD integration (coverage.xml)
  • Configurable coverage thresholds (currently set to 0% for initial setup)

Custom Test Markers

  • @pytest.mark.unit - Unit tests
  • @pytest.mark.integration - Integration tests
  • @pytest.mark.slow - Long-running tests

Validation

✅ All validation tests pass (14/14)
✅ Poetry dependencies install successfully
✅ pytest configuration loads without errors
✅ Coverage reporting generates properly
✅ Project structure fixtures work correctly
✅ Custom markers are recognized

Next Steps

Developers can now immediately start writing tests using the established infrastructure:

  1. Unit Tests: Add to tests/unit/ directory
  2. Integration Tests: Add to tests/integration/ directory
  3. Shared Test Utilities: Add to tests/conftest.py
  4. Adjust Coverage Thresholds: Update --cov-fail-under in pyproject.toml as codebase grows

The infrastructure is ready for immediate use with comprehensive fixtures, proper configuration, and validation that ensures everything works correctly.

- Add pyproject.toml with Poetry configuration and package-mode disabled
- Install pytest, pytest-cov, and pytest-mock as dev dependencies
- Configure pytest with comprehensive settings including coverage reporting
- Create complete tests/ directory structure with unit/ and integration/ subdirs
- Add shared fixtures in conftest.py for common testing utilities
- Include validation tests to verify infrastructure setup
- Update .gitignore with testing artifacts and Claude Code entries
- Set up Poetry script commands for running tests
