Testing Container Images with Python and Pytest

Discover how to simplify container image testing using the pytest_container plugin for pytest in this 16-minute conference talk from DevConf.CZ 2023. Learn about the plugin's capabilities to streamline the testing process for containers and software within them, eliminating the need for manual image pulling, building, or port selection. Explore how to describe container setups and pass them to test functions, receiving a connection to the container in return. Understand how to leverage the testinfra Python framework to verify container states and benefit from the plugin's automatic cleanup feature. Gain insights into writing tests in Python without building a custom framework or dealing with tedious container management tasks. Watch the demonstration of pytest_container in action and discover how it can enhance your container testing workflow.
