A test is a Python class where a test function is defined and will be run by the framework.
ANTA provides an abstract class [AntaTest](../api/models.md#anta.models.AntaTest). This class does the heavy lifting and provide the logic to define, collect and test data. The code below is an example of a simple test in ANTA, which is an [AntaTest](../api/models.md#anta.models.AntaTest) subclass:

- `name` (`str`, `optional`): Name of the test. Used during reporting. By default set to the Class name.
- `description` (`str`, `optional`): A human readable description of your test. By default set to the first line of the docstring.
- `categories` (`list[str]`): A list of categories in which the test belongs.

### Methods
- [test(self) -> None](../api/models.md#anta.models.AntaTest.test): This is an abstract method that **must** be implemented. It contains the test logic that can access the collected command outputs using the `instance_commands` instance attribute, access the test inputs using the `inputs` instance attribute and **must** set the `result` instance attribute accordingly. It must be implemented using the `AntaTest.anta_test` decorator that provides logging and will collect commands before executing the `test()` method.
- [render(self, template: AntaTemplate) -> list[AntaCommand]](../api/models.md#anta.models.AntaTest.render): This method only needs to be implemented if [AntaTemplate](../api/models.md#anta.models.AntaTemplate) instances are present in the `commands` class attribute. It will be called for every [AntaTemplate](../api/models.md#anta.models.AntaTemplate) occurrence and **must** return a list of [AntaCommand](../api/models.md#anta.models.AntaCommand) using the [AntaTemplate.render()](../api/models.md#anta.models.AntaTemplate.render) method. It can access test inputs using the `inputs` instance attribute.

## Test execution
Below is a high level description of the test execution flow in ANTA:
1. ANTA will parse the test catalog to get the list of [AntaTest](../api/models.md#anta.models.AntaTest) subclasses to instantiate and their associated input values. We consider a single [AntaTest](../api/models.md#anta.models.AntaTest) subclass in the following steps.

2. ANTA will instantiate the [AntaTest](../api/models.md#anta.models.AntaTest) subclass and a single device will be provided to the test instance. The `Input` model defined in the class will also be instantiated at this moment. If any [ValidationError](https://docs.pydantic.dev/latest/errors/errors/) is raised, the test execution will be stopped.

If any [ValidationError](https://docs.pydantic.dev/latest/errors/errors/) is raised, the test execution will be stopped.
3. If there is any [AntaTemplate](../api/models.md#anta.models.AntaTemplate) instance in the `commands` class attribute, [render()](../api/models.md#anta.models.AntaTest.render) will be called for every occurrence. At this moment, the `instance_commands` attribute has been initialized. If any rendering error occurs, the test execution will be stopped.
3. If there is any [AntaTemplate](../api/commands.md#anta.models.AntaTemplate) instance in the `commands` class attribute, [render()](../api/tests/anta_test.md#anta.models.AntaTest.render) will be called for every occurrence. At this moment, the `instance_commands` attribute has been initialized. If any rendering error occurs, the test execution will be stopped.
4. The `AntaTest.anta_test` decorator will collect the commands from the device and update the `instance_commands` attribute with the outputs. If any collection error occurs, the test execution will be stopped.
5. The [test()](../api/models.md#anta.models.AntaTest.test) method is executed.

2. If needed, access the test inputs using the `self.inputs` instance attribute and write your conditional logic.
3. Set the `result` instance attribute to reflect the test result by either calling `self.result.is_success()` or `self.result.is_failure("<FAILURE REASON>")`. Sometimes, setting the test result to `skipped` using `self.result.is_skipped("<SKIPPED REASON>")` can make sense (e.g. testing the OSPF neighbor states but no neighbor was found). However, you should not need to catch any exception and set the test result to `error` since the error handling is done by the framework, see below.
