Step 8: Test the Connector

Unit Tests

Add any relevant unit tests to the tests/unit_tests directory. Unit tests should not depend on any secrets.

You can run the tests using poetry run pytest tests/unit_tests.

Integration Tests

Place any integration tests in the integration_tests directory such that they can be discovered by pytest.

You can run the tests using poetry run pytest tests/integration_tests.

More information on integration testing can be found on the Testing Connectors doc.

Connector Acceptance Tests

Connector Acceptance Tests (CATs) are a fixed set of tests Airbyte provides that every Airbyte source connector must pass. While they're only required if you intend to submit your connector to Airbyte, you might find them helpful in any case. See Testing your connectors

If you want to submit this connector to become a default connector within Airbyte, follow steps 8 onwards from the Python source checklist
