断言两个词典几乎相同

标签: python dictionary assert nose

我试图断言两个词典几乎相同,但我似乎无法做到这一点。

以下是一个例子:

>>> import nose.tools as nt
>>> nt.assert_dict_equal({'a' : 12.4}, {'a' : 5.6 + 6.8})
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/unittest/case.py", line 838, in assertDictEqual
    self.fail(self._formatMessage(msg, standardMsg))
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/unittest/case.py", line 413, in fail
    raise self.failureException(msg)
AssertionError: {'a': 12.4} != {'a': 12.399999999999999}
- {'a': 12.4}
+ {'a': 12.399999999999999}

我希望这样通过,就像那样:

>>> nt.assert_almost_equal(12.4, 5.6 + 6.8)

我希望我遗漏一些简单的内容,例如nt.assert_almost_dict_equal,或者我可以传递给nt.assert_dict_equal的参数指定浮点数应该有多近,但我不能找到任何东西。

当然,我可以循环遍历字典并使用nt.assert_almost_equal单独比较值;但是,在我的情况下,字典更复杂,所以我希望避免这样做。

断言两个字典几乎相等的最佳方式是什么?

复制了一个函数
import unittest

    Compares lists, dicts and tuples recursively. Checks numeric values

我知道您不会仅仅为了执行此操作而导入熊猫,但是如果您碰巧正在使用熊猫,则可以将字典转换为序列并使用assert_series_equal中的pandas.testing,默认情况下, check_exact=False

>>> import pandas as pd
>>> from pandas.testing import assert_series_equal
>>> a = pd.Series({'a' : 12.4})
>>> b = pd.Series({'a': 12.399999999999999})
>>> assert_series_equal(a, b)

我无法运行Akavall的函数,所以我自己做了。有点太简单了,但是可以满足我的目的。使用pytest编写的代码来测试该功能是否正常工作

from numbers import Number
from math import isclose

def dictsAlmostEqual(dict1, dict2, rel_tol=1e-8):
    """
    If dictionary value is a number, then check that the numbers are almost equal, otherwise check if values are exactly equal
    Note: does not currently try converting strings to digits and comparing them. Does not care about ordering of keys in dictionaries
    Just returns true or false
    """
    if len(dict1) != len(dict2):
        return False
    # Loop through each item in the first dict and compare it to the second dict
    for key, item in dict1.items():
        # If it is a nested dictionary, need to call the function again
        if isinstance(item, dict):
            # If the nested dictionaries are not almost equal, return False
            if not dictsAlmostEqual(dict1[key], dict2[key], rel_tol=rel_tol):
                return False
        # If it's not a dictionary, then continue comparing
        # Put in else statement or else the nested dictionary will get compared twice and
        # On the second time will check for exactly equal and will fail
        else:
            # If the value is a number, check if they are approximately equal
            if isinstance(item, Number):
                # if not abs(dict1[key] - dict2[key]) <= rel_tol:
                # https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5595425/what-is-the-best-way-to-compare-floats-for-almost-equality-in-python
                if not isclose(dict1[key], dict2[key], rel_tol=rel_tol):
                    return False
            else:
                if not (dict1[key] == dict2[key]):
                    return False
    return True

使用pytest验证函数输出

Pytest“大约”可以完成工作
