Python Unittests with GitHub Actions

This is a simple GitHub repository that shows how you can use GitHub Actions to run unittests on Python code.

The configuration for the Actions workflow is found here at .github/workflows/py-unittest.yml, and it simply runs the command:

Lines 26 to 27 in 216a042

 - name: Run all Python unittests 

 run: python -m unittest *.py

One of the tests to be run has a failure due to some bad math 😏:

Lines 19 to 21 in 52c46af

 def test_bad_math(self): 

 # This test will fail because 2+2 = 4 

 self.assertEqual(2+2, 5)

To see the failing test results, visit the results of this job.

You'll notice that the test failed and the reason given is:

AssertionError: 4 != 5

You can easily fix the failing test with this Pull Request- "Fix Failing Unittest"

And sure enough, the tests pass and the GitHub Actions workflow shows green 🟢:

As well as when looking at the Pull Request itself:

	- name: Run all Python unittests
	run: python -m unittest *.py
