=====
[![PyPI version][pypishield]](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/tap.py)
[![Coverage][coverage]](https://codecov.io/github/python-tap/tappy)
tappy is a set of tools for working with the
[Test Anything Protocol (TAP)][tap] in Python. TAP is a line based test
protocol for recording test data in a standard way.
Full documentation for tappy is at [Read the Docs][rtd]. The information
below provides a synopsis of what tappy supplies.
For the curious: tappy sounds like "happy."
If you find tappy useful, please consider starring the repository to show a
kindness and help others discover something valuable. Thanks!
Installation
------------
tappy is available for download from [PyPI][pypi]. tappy is currently supported
on Python
3.7,
3.8,
3.9,
3.10,
and PyPy.
It is continuously tested on Linux, OS X, and Windows.
```bash
$ pip install tap.py
```
For testing with [pytest][pytest],
you only need to install `pytest-tap`.
```bash
$ pip install pytest-tap
```
For testing with [nose][ns],
you only need to install `nose-tap`.
```bash
$ pip install nose-tap
```
TAP version 13 brings support
for [YAML blocks](http://testanything.org/tap-version-13-specification.html#yaml-blocks)
associated with test results.
To work with version 13, install the optional dependencies.
Learn more about YAML support
in the [TAP version 13](http://tappy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/consumers.html#tap-version-13) section.
```bash
$ pip install tap.py[yaml]
```
Motivation
----------
Some projects have mixed programming environments with many
programming languages and tools. Because of TAP's simplicity,
it can function as a *lingua franca* for testing.
When every testing tool can create TAP,
a team can get a holistic view of their system.
Python did not have a bridge from `unittest` to TAP so it was
difficult to integrate a Python test suite into a larger TAP ecosystem.
tappy is Python's bridge to TAP.

Goals
-----
1. Provide [TAP Producers][produce] which translate Python's `unittest` into
TAP.
2. Provide a [TAP Consumer][consume] which reads TAP and provides a
programmatic API in Python or generates summary results.
3. Provide a command line interface for reading TAP.
Producers
---------
* `TAPTestRunner` - This subclass of `unittest.TextTestRunner` provides all
the functionality of `TextTestRunner` and generates TAP files.
* tappy for [nose][ns] -
`nose-tap` provides a plugin
for the **nose** testing tool.
* tappy for [pytest][pytest] -
`pytest-tap` provides a plugin
for the **pytest** testing tool.
Consumers
---------
* `tappy` - A command line tool for processing TAP files.
* `Loader` and `Parser` - Python APIs for handling of TAP files and data.
Contributing
------------
The project welcomes contributions of all kinds.
