A pytest plugin to run Xvfb for tests.

----

Installation
------------

You can install "`pytest-xvfb`_" via `pip`_ from `PyPI`_::

    $ pip install pytest-xvfb


Usage
-----

With Xvfb and the plugin installed, your testsuite automatically runs with `Xvfb`_. This allows tests to be run without windows popping up during GUI tests or on systems without a display (like a CI).

If Xvfb is not installed, the plugin does not run and your tests will still work as normal. However,
a warning message will print to standard output letting you know that Xvfb is not installed.

If you're currently using ``xvfb-run`` in something like ``.travis.yml``,
simply remove it and install this plugin instead - then you'll also have the
benefits of Xvfb locally.

Features
--------

You can pass ``--no-xvfb`` to explicitly turn off Xvfb (e.g. to visually
inspect a failure).

You can mark tests with ``@pytest.mark.no_xvfb`` to skip them when they're
running with Xvfb.

A ``xvfb`` fixture is available with the following attributes:

- ``width``: The configured width of the screen.
- ``height``: The configured height of the screen.
- ``colordepth``: The configured colordepth of the screen.
- ``args``: The arguments to be passed to Xvfb.
- ``display``: The display number (as int) which is used.

Contributing
------------

Contributions are very welcome. Tests can be run with `tox`_, please ensure
the coverage at least stays the same before you submit a pull request.

License
-------

Distributed under the terms of the `MIT`_ license, "pytest-xvfb" is free and open source software

Thanks to `@cgoldberg`_ for `xvfbwrapper`_ which was the inspiration for this
project.
