How to run all pytest assertions, even if some of them fail?

Question

I am looking for a way to run all of the assertions in my unit tests in PyTest, even if some of them fail. I know there must be a simple way to do this. I checked the CLI options and looked through this site for similar questions/answers but didn't see anything. Sorry if this has already been answered.

For example, consider the following code snippet, with PyTest code alongside it:

def parrot(i):
    return i

def test_parrot():
    assert parrot(0) == 0
    assert parrot(1) == 1
    assert parrot(2) == 1
    assert parrot(2) == 2

By default, the execution stops at the first failure:

$ python -m pytest fail_me.py 
=================== test session starts ===================
platform linux2 -- Python 2.7.10, pytest-2.9.1, py-1.4.31, pluggy-0.3.1
rootdir: /home/npsrt/Documents/repo/codewars, inifile: 
collected 1 items 

fail_me.py F

=================== FAILURES ===================
___________________ test_parrot ___________________

    def test_parrot():
        assert parrot(0) == 0
        assert parrot(1) == 1
>       assert parrot(2) == 1
E       assert 2 == 1
E        +  where 2 = parrot(2)

fail_me.py:7: AssertionError
=================== 1 failed in 0.05 seconds ===================

What I'd like to do is to have the code continue to execute even after PyTest encounters the first failure.

Answer 1

It ran all of your tests. You only wrote one test, and that test ran!

If you want nonfatal assertions, where a test will keep going if an assertion fails (like Google Test's EXPECT macros), try pytest-expect, which provides that functionality. Here's the example their site gives:

def test_func(expect):
    expect('a' == 'b')
    expect(1 != 1)
    a = 1
    b = 2
    expect(a == b, 'a:%s b:%s' % (a,b))

You can see that expectation failures don't stop the test, and all failed expectations get reported:

$ python -m pytest test_expect.py
================ test session starts =================
platform darwin -- Python 2.7.9 -- py-1.4.26 -- pytest-2.7.0
rootdir: /Users/okken/example, inifile: 
plugins: expect
