Authors and runs Celery task tests in Python - `pytest-celery` fixtures (`celery_app`, `celery_worker` per-test, `celery_session_worker` per-session); `task_always_eager` config NOT recommended for unit tests; `apply()` for synchronous test invocation; mock-and-patch retry patterns via `unittest.mock.patch` on `task.retry`. Use when the user works with Celery task workers and needs unit / integration tests across function-style or class-style tasks.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# celery-tests

## Overview

Per [docs.celeryq.dev/en/stable/userguide/testing.html][cel-test]:

[cel-test]: https://docs.celeryq.dev/en/stable/userguide/testing.html

> "Testing with Celery is divided into two parts: Unit & Integration:
> Using `celery.contrib.pytest`. Smoke / Production: Using
> [pytest-celery](https://pypi.org/project/pytest-celery/) >= 1.0.0"

The test model uses pytest fixtures from the `celery.contrib.pytest`
plugin (or the standalone `pytest-celery` package for newer versions).

## When to use

- The repo has Celery task definitions (`@app.task` or
  `@shared_task`).
- The user writes unit tests for the task body (no need for a real
  worker).
- The user writes integration tests that require a real Celery
  worker thread.
- A test verifies retry / chord / chain semantics.

## How to use

1. Confirm the repo has Celery tasks (`@app.task` / `@shared_task`) and pick
   the level: unit (task body) vs integration (real worker).
2. For unit tests, call the task function directly and assert its side
   effects; do NOT enable `task_always_eager` (Step 1, Step 2).
3. For retry logic, `unittest.mock.patch` the `<task>.retry` and the failing
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add testland/qa/celery-tests@sha256:fcfc0a4c222f4564

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260726.19ddd36, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
