Py.Test : Reporting and HTML output

Question

This is not a technical question at all really. However, I can not locate my .HTML report that is supposed to be generated using:

py.test --cov-report htm

Answer 1

If you want to generate report in html, give full file path of the test file.

py.test --cov-report html test_file_name.py --cov=/home/ubuntu/venv/python3/lib/python3.7/site-packages/test/

Then start a python server

python -m http.server 

Navigate to the html file in htmlcov directory

http://0.0.0.0:8000/venv/python3/lib/python3.7/site-packages/htmlcov/

You will see the report
