tests.custom_flask_client.CustomFlaskClient.open

CustomFlaskClient.open(*args: Any, as_tuple: bool = False, buffered: bool = False, follow_redirects: bool = False, **kwargs: Any) → Response

Generate an environ dict from the given arguments, make a request to the application using it, and return the response.

Parameters

  • args – Passed to EnvironBuilder to create the environ for the request. If a single arg is passed, it can be an existing EnvironBuilder or an environ dict.

  • buffered – Convert the iterator returned by the app into a list. If the iterator has a close() method, it is called automatically.

  • follow_redirects – Make additional requests to follow HTTP redirects until a non-redirect status is returned. TestResponse.history lists the intermediate responses.

Changed in version 2.0: as_tuple is deprecated and will be removed in Werkzeug 2.1. Use TestResponse.request and request.environ instead.

Changed in version 2.0: The request input stream is closed when calling response.close(). Input streams for redirects are automatically closed.

Changed in version 0.5: If a dict is provided as file in the dict for the data parameter the content type has to be called content_type instead of mimetype. This change was made for consistency with werkzeug.FileWrapper.

Changed in version 0.5: Added the follow_redirects parameter.
