flask-api-sqlite-db

API for Managing test cases and their execution results across multiple test assets, with data stored in a SQLite database.

Running the app

To run the Flask application, follow these steps:

1. Download the project starter code locally

   git clone https://github.com/john0isaac/flask-api-sqlite-db.git
   cd flask-api-sqlite-db

2. Install, initialize and activate a virtualenv using:

   pip install virtualenv
   python -m virtualenv venv
   source venv/bin/activate

   Note - In Windows, the venv does not have a bin directory. Therefore, you'd use the analogous command shown below:

   source venv\Scripts\activate

3. Install the dependencies:

   pip install -r requirements.txt

4. Execute the following command in your terminal to start the flask app

   export DATABASE_FILENAME=testdb.db
   export FLASK_APP=src.app
   export FLASK_ENV=development
   flask run --reload

Run the tests

1. Inside your virtual environment, execute the following command to run the tests

   python flask_test.py
