Testing Instructions

This document provides instructions on how to run the automated tests for the Azure Maps MCP server.

Prerequisites

Ensure you have a valid Azure Maps API Key. The tests expect this key to be present in a file named .apikey in the root of the project.

Setup

1. Install Test Dependencies: It is recommended to run tests in a virtual environment.

   pip install -r requirements-test.txt
   

   Ensure requirements.txt dependencies are also installed if they haven't been already:

   pip install -r requirements.txt
   

Running Tests

To run the tests, use pytest:

pytest test_azure_maps_mcp.py

Options

• Verbose output:

  pytest -v test_azure_maps_mcp.py
  

• Show print output:

  pytest -s test_azure_maps_mcp.py
  

Test Coverage

The tests cover:

• Basic Map Retrieval: Verifies fetching a map image using center coordinates and zoom level.
• Map with Pushpins: Verifies fetching a map that includes pushpins.
• Error Handling: Verifies that invalid inputs (e.g., malformed center coordinates) are handled gracefully and return appropriate error messages.
