Official pytest plugin for Celery¶
Welcome to pytest-celery, the official pytest plugin for Celery.
The pytest-celery plugin introduces significant enhancements with the introduction of version >= 1.0.0, shifting towards a Docker-based approach for smoke and production-like testing. While the celery.contrib.pytest API continues to support detailed integration and unit testing, the new Docker-based methodology is tailored for testing in environments that closely mirror production settings.
Adopting version >= 1.0.0 enriches your testing suite with these new capabilities without affecting your existing tests, allowing for a smooth upgrade path. The documentation here will navigate you through utilizing the Docker-based approach. For information on the celery.contrib.pytest API for integration and unit testing, please refer to the official documentation.
The pytest-celery plugin is Open Source and licensed under the BSD License.
