# Requirements

* Python 3.11


# Installation

Install using `pip`...

    pip install rigor


# Feature List


* Functional testing without the need to write glue code. (e.g. Cucumber)
* Runs in either synchronous ([requests]) or asynchronous ([aiohttp]) mode.
* YAML-based format for Test Case files for easy test creation and maintenance.
* Response transformation using [jmespath.py] to reduce test fragility.
* Pretty HTML test execution reports using [cucumber-sandwich].
* [Swagger] path coverage report to ensure API surface area coverage.
* Syntax highlighted console or JSON-based logging using [structlog].
* Profiles for switching between different environments and settings.
* Tags and CLI options for selectively executing subsets of the test suite.
* Scenario Outlines (i.e. Tables) for cases with numerous scenarios.
* Beautiful Soup parsing for extraction from HTML data.
* Proper error code ($?) on suite success (0) or failure (!0)
* Case-scenario unique identifier (__uuid__) for managing session and race conditions.

# Object Model

* suite: set of cases that gets built dynamically based on cli arguments.
* case: set of scenarios and steps in a .rigor file.
* scenario: namespace for 1 run of case steps.
* step: request with response extract, validate, etc.
* iterate: repeats an individual step by iterating through iterable.
* request: http call (get, post, etc.) to path with parameters, data, or uploads
* extract: extract nested data from a response into a variable available to following steps.
* validate: check an actual value against an expected value using a comparator.
* transform: using [jmespath] to shape a JSON response into a specific format.

# Comparators

Comparators are used by the validation phase of each step to check whether
an actual value is returning as expected. See the [comparisons.rigor] example
for more details.

* equals
* not equals
* same
* not same
* greater than
* less than
* greater than or equals
* less than or equals
* type
* in
* not in
* regex
* subset
* not subset
* length
* superset
* not superset
* keyset
* not keyset
* contains
* not contains
