Overview

pyTooling ships the XML schemas of the file formats it writes, so a consumer of such a file can validate it without owning pyTooling. Each schema is listed here with its full source, ready to read, to copy, or to download.

Available schemas

Schema	Version	Written by
TestReport	v0.1	`pyTooling.Testing.ReportWriter`

How a schema is versioned

The file name carries the version, so a new version of a format is added beside the old one rather than replacing it: TestReport-v0.1.xsd and, one day, TestReport-v0.2.xsd. A reader of a document learns from its xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation attribute which of them it needs.

Reaching a schema from Python

The schemas are shipped in the resource package pyTooling.Resources, so a program that already depends on pyTooling doesn’t need the copy published here.

example.py

from pathlib                        import Path
from pyTooling                      import Resources
from pyTooling.Common               import getResourceFile
from pyTooling.Testing.ReportWriter import SCHEMA_FILES, SCHEMA_VERSION_LATEST

schemaPath: Path = getResourceFile(Resources, SCHEMA_FILES[SCHEMA_VERSION_LATEST])
