Hi,
I had never used pytest for ros before. I was looking for some examples of how to set up pytest and use colcon test to test it out. Inside setup.py for the packages I see tests_require = ['pytest'] and also that pkg contains test and resources folder, but not sure how to use it. Some basic examples would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
There's an option in colcon test (ref (colcon.readthedocs.io)):
--python-testing {pytest,setuppy_test}
Note that these are for "pure Python" test cases, i.e. tests that don't involve ROS nodes. For tests with ROS nodes, in ROS1 you can use rostest. In ROS2, #q292100 (started in 2018) indicates there's no equivalent.
