makePythonTdd.ps1

makePythonTdd.sh program

• Here is the makePythonTdd.ps1 program from how to make a python test driven development environment on Windows without Windows Subsystem for Linux

  $PROJECT_NAME=$args[0]
  mkdir $PROJECT_NAME
  cd $PROJECT_NAME
  mkdir src
  New-Item "src/$PROJECT_NAME.py"
  mkdir tests
  New-Item tests/__init__.py
  
  "import unittest
  
  
  class Test$($PROJECT_NAME)(unittest.TestCase):
  
      def test_failure(self):
          self.assertFalse(True)
  
  
  # Exceptions seen
  # AssertionError
  " | Out-File "tests/test_$PROJECT_NAME.py" -Encoding UTF8
  
  python -m venv .venv
  .venv/scripts/activate.ps1
  python -m pip install --upgrade pip
  "pytest-watcher" | Out-File requirements.txt -Encoding UTF8
  python -m pip install --requirement requirements.txt
  pytest-watcher
  

• give a name for the $PROJECT_NAME variable when the program is called to make a Test Driven Development any time you want. For example typing this command in the terminal in the folder where makePythonTdd.ps1 is saved makes a Test Driven Development environment for a project with the name person

  ./makePythonTdd.ps1 person

BONUS: makePythonTdd.ps1 Pro

Since you are the adventurous type and made it in here, I have added 2 lines for you that automate opening the test file and source file for the projects

$PROJECT_NAME=$args[0]
mkdir $PROJECT_NAME
cd $PROJECT_NAME
mkdir src
New-Item "src/$PROJECT_NAME.py"
mkdir tests
New-Item tests/__init__.py

"import unittest


class Test$($PROJECT_NAME)(unittest.TestCase):

    def test_failure(self):
        self.assertFalse(True)


# Exceptions seen
# AssertionError
" | Out-File "tests/test_$PROJECT_NAME.py" -Encoding UTF8

code src/$PROJECT_NAME.py
code tests/test_$PROJECT_NAME.py

python -m venv .venv
.venv/scripts/activate.ps1
python -m pip install --upgrade pip
"pytest-watcher" | Out-File requirements.txt -Encoding UTF8
python -m pip install --requirement requirements.txt
pytest-watcher

this works with Visual Studio Code you can change it to use the command for any Integrated Development Environment (IDE) you like
