Testing harness

pytest-homeassistant-custom-component  — provides `hass` fixture, MockConfigEntry, async test loop
aioresponses                           — mock aiohttp calls
syrupy                                 — snapshot tests for entity states

Fixture patterns

Use the canonical placeholder identifiers (1234567890 for account, 9999999999 for contract). Do not use real customer values.

from pytest_homeassistant_custom_component.common import MockConfigEntry

entry = MockConfigEntry(
    domain=DOMAIN,
    data={
        CONF_REFRESH_TOKEN: "v1.testtoken",
        CONF_CONTRACT_NUMBER: "9999999999",
        CONF_ACCOUNT_NUMBER: "1234567890",
    },
    unique_id="1234567890_9999999999",
)
entry.add_to_hass(hass)

Patching strategy

Patch at the boundary nearest the test:

• For coordinator tests: patch("custom_components.haggle.coordinator.HaggleCoordinator._async_update_data")
• For client tests: load anonymised JSON fixtures from tests/fixtures/ and feed to aioresponses
• For config flow tests: patch _discover_contracts directly

Test fixture files

Anonymised AGL API response shapes live in tests/fixtures/. Load them:

import json, pathlib

FIXTURES = pathlib.Path(__file__).parent / "fixtures"

def load_fixture(name: str) -> dict:
    return json.loads((FIXTURES / name).read_text())

What to test

1. Setup / unload roundtrip — entry sets up, sensors created, entry unloads cleanly, session closed.
2. Config flow — user step shows form, stub path creates entry, multi-contract shows selector.
3. Coordinator update — mock /Hourly response, assert coordinator data has correct keys/values.
4. import_statistics call — assert async_import_statistics is called with correct StatisticData after hourly fetch.
5. Reauth trigger — when _async_update_data raises AGLAuthError, assert ConfigEntryAuthFailed bubbles up.
6. Token rotation — when AglAuth.async_force_refresh is called, assert persist_callback is called with the new token.

Always

• Use await hass.async_block_till_done() after setup/unload.
• Assert entry.runtime_data is not None after successful setup.
• Mark tests async def test_... (asyncio_mode=auto handles the event loop).
• No blocking I/O in tests; always mock aiohttp calls.
