Python Unit Tests

Unlike Rust, there's no consistent way to just run unit tests for a Python project. Not only are there multiple test frameworks, but there are also a morass of different ways to specify and manage dependencies. So while Tenx includes support for linting and formatting Python with ruff, we "solve" the unit testing problem by simply not including test support directly.

Luckily, configuring an arbitrary check is very simple. Here's an example of using uv to run pytest on all Python files in a project directory:

(
    checks: (
        custom: [
            (
                name: "pytest",
                command: "uv run pytest *.py",
                globs: ["**/*.py"],
            ),
        ]
    )
)

We can now verify that the pytest check is included in our project checks:

And we can run it on our project:
