VectorStoreIntegrationTests#

class langchain_tests.integration_tests.vectorstores.VectorStoreIntegrationTests[source]#

Base class for vector store integration tests.

Implementers should subclass this test suite and provide a fixture that returns an empty vector store for each test.

The fixture should use the get_embeddings method to get a pre-defined embeddings model that should be used for this test suite.

Here is a template:

from typing import Generator

import pytest
from langchain_core.vectorstores import VectorStore
from langchain_parrot_link.vectorstores import ParrotVectorStore
from langchain_tests.integration_tests.vectorstores import VectorStoreIntegrationTests


class TestParrotVectorStore(VectorStoreIntegrationTests):
    @pytest.fixture()
    def vectorstore(self) -> Generator[VectorStore, None, None]:  # type: ignore
        """Get an empty vectorstore."""
        store = ParrotVectorStore(self.get_embeddings())
        # note: store should be EMPTY at this point
        # if you need to delete data, you may do so here
        try:
            yield store
        finally:
            # cleanup operations, or deleting data
            pass

In the fixture, before the yield we instantiate an empty vector store. In the finally block, we call whatever logic is necessary to bring the vector store to a clean state.

Example:

from typing import Generator

import pytest
from langchain_core.vectorstores import VectorStore
from langchain_tests.integration_tests.vectorstores import VectorStoreIntegrationTests

from langchain_chroma import Chroma


class TestChromaStandard(VectorStoreIntegrationTests):
    @pytest.fixture()
    def vectorstore(self) -> Generator[VectorStore, None, None]:  # type: ignore
        """Get an empty vectorstore for unit tests."""
        store = Chroma(embedding_function=self.get_embeddings())
        try:
            yield store
        finally:
            store.delete_collection()
            pass

Note that by default we enable both sync and async tests. To disable either, override the has_sync or has_async properties to False in the subclass. For example:

class TestParrotVectorStore(VectorStoreIntegrationTests):
    @pytest.fixture()
    def vectorstore(self) -> Generator[VectorStore, None, None]:  # type: ignore
        ...

    @property
    def has_async(self) -> bool:
        return False

API references for individual test methods include troubleshooting tips.

Troubleshooting

If this test fails, check that:

  1. We correctly initialize an empty vector store in the vectorestore fixture.

  2. Calling .similarity_search for the top k similar documents does not threshold by score.

  3. We do not mutate the original document object when adding it to the vector store (e.g., by adding an ID).

Parameters:

vectorstore (VectorStore)

Return type:

None

async test_add_documents_async(
vectorstore: VectorStore,
) → None[source]#

Test adding documents into the vectorstore.

Troubleshooting

If this test fails, check that:
