Description

Used copier to template the repo. When I do this, the users tests fail.

The .env has this for default:

SECRET_KEY=changethis
[email protected]
FIRST_SUPERUSER_PASSWORD=changethis

mine was changed to this:

SECRET_KEY=changeme
[email protected]
FIRST_SUPERUSER_PASSWORD=HMpzt9&VAgao6%

And I get the following errors:

ERROR app/tests/api/routes/test_users.py::test_get_users_superuser_me - KeyError: 'access_token'
ERROR app/tests/api/routes/test_users.py::test_create_user_new_email - KeyError: 'access_token'

When I revert back to the default values above, they all pass.

When I have it on the default settings, I get the following:

app/tests/api/routes/test_items.py {'Authorization': 'Bearer eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJleHAiOjE3MTIyNzAzMTQsInN1YiI6IjIyNSJ9.vt3jx5s0fGr476fvBXk_X1DjABjTKT7Xav0DTrh8ldI'}

.........................

I added a print statement here:

@pytest.fixture(scope="module")
def superuser_token_headers(client: TestClient) -> dict[str, str]:
    print(get_superuser_token_headers(client))
    return get_superuser_token_headers(client)

and added -s to the test script here:

coverage run --source=app -m pytest -s

After changing password to FIRST_SUPERUSER_PASSWORD=HELLO the {'Authorization':... no longer shows up for test_users.py, but does on test_items and test_login:

app/tests/api/routes/test_items.py {'Authorization': 'Bearer eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJleHAiOjE3MTIyNzA1MTYsInN1YiI6IjI2MSJ9.ETxxIi_ajtc0tmwK7La7_O_iGnpV3rRDUiBI9npw9kk'}

Appears that this is the problem:

def test_reset_password(
    client: TestClient, superuser_token_headers: dict[str, str]
) -> None:
    token = generate_password_reset_token(email=settings.FIRST_SUPERUSER)
    data = {"new_password": "changethis", "token": token}
    r = client.post(
        f"{settings.API_V1_STR}/reset-password/",
        headers=superuser_token_headers,
        json=data,
    )
    assert r.status_code == 200
    assert r.json() == {"message": "Password updated successfully"}

If you change this to :

def test_reset_password(
    client: TestClient, superuser_token_headers: dict[str, str]
) -> None:
    token = generate_password_reset_token(email=settings.FIRST_SUPERUSER)
    data = {"new_password": settings.FIRST_SUPERUSER_PASSWORD, "token": token}
    r = client.post(
        f"{settings.API_V1_STR}/reset-password/",
        headers=superuser_token_headers,
        json=data,
    )
    assert r.status_code == 200
    assert r.json() == {"message": "Password updated successfully"}

all tests succeed.

Thanks! this solved my problem. I spent several hours yesterday to investigate this error. But did you understand the reasone for this error/solution

[t11c]

I just tested somethin else; changing the scope of the pytest fixture db in app/tests/conftest.py from session to module also solves this issue. Without having to change the value for new_password as above

from this:

@pytest.fixture(scope="session", autouse=True)
def db() -> Generator[Session, None, None]:
    with Session(engine) as session:
        init_db(session)
        yield session
        statement = delete(Item)
        session.execute(statement)
        statement = delete(User)
        session.execute(statement)
        session.commit()

into this:

@pytest.fixture(scope="module", autouse=True)
def db() -> Generator[Session, None, None]:
    with Session(engine) as session:
        init_db(session)
        yield session
        statement = delete(Item)
        session.execute(statement)
        statement = delete(User)
        session.execute(statement)
        session.commit()

Yeah I think the reset password test changes the password for any future tests. Your solution may be better than this, because I think it will set up a db for each test module. But I'm not sure what the desired behavior is, so we should wait for @tiangolo or someone more familiar before PR.

[whoknowsb]

I had the same problem! Ty guys! This should be updated in the repo tho

I also ran into this. I'm not sure why this test is written to break if you actually change the FIRST_SUPERUSER_PASSWORD. If instead of using "changethis" you use the FIRST_SUPERUSER_PASSWORD, whatever its set to, then its not a great test because you don't actually test if the password got changed since you're changing it to the same password. In my opinion there are two approaches, 1) you can create a throw away user (like test_create_user_by_normal_user) to actually change the password for, then it won't mess with the superuser's password, or 2) once you change it to "changethis", change it back to the original password, thus restoring the state (this is what test_update_password_me does).

Is the idea to only run the tests with totally clean data and have it return to that state after the tests?
