We need some tests that parse a list of arguments (like [1]) and then verify that the resulting parsed arguments are successfully processed by _build_kwargs [2]. This is to prevent regressions like Bug 1315522. For example, when arguments ['marionette', '--addon', 'something'] are passed to the parser and then onto _build_kwargs, then the dictionary produced by _build_kwargs should include {'addons': 'something'}. For an example of a similar test, see [3], but for this bug the arguments passed to 'build_kwargs_using' should be constructed via a call to BaseMarionetteArguments.

If someone can mentor this I would like to try. Thanks

Hi svezauzeto12, I'm available to mentor. Please go ahead and get started based on the info I provide in Comment 0. If you have any questions as you proceed, either flag me here in the bug by checking the "Need more information from ..." field or ping me on IRC in #ateam or #automation. Thanks in advance for working on this. :)

Okay I will give it a try :) Thanks :)

Hi Tomislav, are you still working on this? Do you have any questions?

Hi Maja, tbh I forgot about this bug since I didn't have it listed in "My bugs". Of course that this is not an excuse , just mistake from my side. If it is still not to late I will try to solve it now, if this is okay with you ? Thanks

Yes, go ahead. :) I will assign this bug to you once you submit a patch for review. If you decide not to work on it, please let us know by commenting on the bug. That way other volunteers can pick it up. Regarding needinfo: if you leave a question for me here, please check the box "Need more information from", and set my id, not yours, so that I get a notification.

Hi Maja, I was thinking about this one and I am kinda stuck on this: """ but for this bug the arguments passed to 'build_kwargs_using' should be constructed via a call to BaseMarionetteArguments.""" is there any documentation on for this, because I have no idea how to call BaseMarionneteArguments. Thank you

Hi Tomislav, There's no documentation about this part of Marionette harness, so your best option in general is to search through the code using a tool like https://dxr.mozilla.org If you search for 'class BaseMarionetteArguments' you'll find that it's a child of the standard `argparse.ArgumentParser` class and it it uses that `parse_args` method [0]. In the case of `build_kwargs_using` [1], you likely need to make a new fixture that works the same way but uses BaseMarionetteArguments directly instead of using `mach_parsed_kwargs` (which is just a dict of previously parsed data). So your new fixture will instantiate BaseMarionetteArguments (`parser = BaseMarionetteArguments()`) then use it parse an arbitrary list of arguments (`parsed_args = parser.parse_args(some_list_of_args_that_you_are_testing)`) to call MarionetteTestRunner, etc. Note that it's important to call verify_usage after parse_args [2]. Ultimately, your goal is to be able to write a test somewhat like this: ``` def test_a_thing(fixture1, fixture2, build_kwargs_with_parser_using): # build_kwargs_with_parser_using fixture doesn't exist yet, you have to write it # cause BaseMarionetteArguments.parse_args and MarionetteTestRunner._build_kwargs to be called with some test arguments built_kwargs = build_kwargs_with_parser_using(['marionette', '--addon', 'something']) # check that args got processed as expected, i.e. built_kwargs contains {'addon': 'something'} I hope that helps. Try to get this idea working and show me your work in progress by submitting patch -- I can give you some preliminary feedback. If you can think of a better way to test this, feel free to suggest that, too. :) [0] https://docs.python.org/2/library/argparse.html#parsing-arguments [1] https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/6dccae211ae5fec6a1c1244b878ce0b93860154f/testing/marionette/harness/marionette_harness/tests/harness_unit/test_marionette_runner.py#38-49 [2] Example of using BaseMarionetteArguments in actual harness: https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/6dccae211ae5fec6a1c1244b878ce0b93860154f/testing/marionette/harness/marionette_harness/runtests.py#54-55

Yes this is great explanation. Just one more question before I commit patch, where should I put my test ? In base.py or ? Thanks

The all the test code and fixtures should go in testing/marionette/harness/marionette_harness/tests/harness_unit/test_marionette_runner.py

Can I work on this?

Yes, go ahead.

Hi Maja, I am going to give this one a shot. I will update you with questions as I get stuck in.

Sounds good. Need-info me when you have questions.

The attachment is a draft showing my approach. Once I've fine-tuned, then I will modify test_marionette_runner.py directly. I'm a little confused about how to incorporate your reference to the code here [1] into the test. Pointers would be appreciated. Also what arguments would I be passing? The list ['marionette', '--addon', 'something'] seems to be a template https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/6dccae211ae5fec6a1c1244b878ce0b93860154f/testing/marionette/harness/marionette_harness/tests/harness_unit/test_marionette_runner.py#38-49

Unfortunately, attaching this as an attachment makes you download the file, which I didn't anticipate. So here's the draft code: @pytest.fixture def test_build_kwargs_parser_using(fixture1, fixture2, build_kwargs_with_parser_using): def build_kwargs_with_parser_using(parsed_args): parser = MarionetteArguments() argv = ['marionette', '--addon', 'something'] parsed_args = parser.parse_args(argv) parser.verify_usage(parsed_args) return parsed_args

Hi Leni, glad to see you working on this. :) > I'm a little confused about how to incorporate your reference to the code here [1] into the test. Pointers would be appreciated. So [1] is an example of a pytest fixture (see https://docs.pytest.org/en/latest/fixture.html#fixtures-as-function-arguments). I don't expect you will need to use it directly in your test; instead you likely need to write a similar fixture. > Also what arguments would I be passing? The list ['marionette', '--addon', 'something'] seems to be a template. The above list is an example based on Bug 1315522. You can use that list as is. Once you have a working test, we can discuss expanding it to work with more examples of arguments. (In reply to Leni Kadali from comment #16) > > The attachment is a draft showing my approach.

I think you want to pull build_kwargs_with_parser_using out of the test function like this: @pytest.fixture def build_kwargs_with_parser_using(...): // call MarionetteArguments etc and return result Then use it in the test function by listing it in the parameters: def test_my_thing(build_kwargs_with_parser_using, other_fixture_if_you_need, ...): result = build_kwargs_with_parser_using(['marionette', '--addon', 'something']) // check that result contains {'addon': 'something'} As an extra tip, it might help to gain some familiarity with the thing you're testing. (a) Try playing around with MarionetteArguments in the python interpreter (./mach python) to see how it behaves. (b) Step through the ./mach marionette-test command with a debugger (e.g. ./mach --debug marionette-test --repeat --gecko-log=somefile) to see how the args are constructed.

I imagine that the build_kwargs_with_parser_using function is supposed to take care of that or there's some code I'm missing? Looking through test_marionette_runner.py, the options I could see were: * Using `keys` * Alternatively using an if statement: `if result[0:1] == {'addon': 'something'}` * The approach in test_build_kwargs_basic_args(build_kwargs_using) also looked interesting. * Most other test_build_kwargs* functions seem to explicitly define the dictionary to be used. https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/6dccae211ae5fec6a1c1244b878ce0b93860154f/testing/marionette/harness/marionette_harness/tests/harness_unit/test_marionette_runner.py#137-150 > As an extra tip, it might help to gain some familiarity with the thing > you're testing.

How do I go about trying out MarionetteArguments in the python interpreter? How do I see how the arguments are constructed? Do I run the test file I'm working on?

I imagine that the > build_kwargs_with_parser_using function is supposed to take care of that or > there's some code I'm missing? build_kwargs_with_parser returns the result of parse_args, which can be converted into a dict. > How do I go about trying out MarionetteArguments in the python interpreter? > How do I see how the arguments are constructed? Try this: ./mach python from marionette_harness.runtests import MarionetteArguments parser = MarionetteArguments() args = parser.parse_args(["marionette", "--repeat", "2"]) You can turn args into a dict with vars(args)

For the if statement below: if result == {'addon': 'something'}: pass I thought that result being equal to {'addon': 'something'} is supposed to result in something more meaningful so I've used `pass` as a placeholder for that code. I considered just returning the result but I wasn't sure about that. Changed how I was importing MarionetteArguments following the guidelines here: http://ateam-bootcamp.readthedocs.io/en/latest/reference/python-style.html

Comment on attachment 8882180 [details] [diff] [review] [marionette harness tests] Test that BaseMarionetteArguments constructs arguments as expected Seems like I decided against using `pass` in the if statement. I opted to use `print result` instead.

Also, may I be assigned to the bug please? :)

Hello Henrik. Have been doing some reading as regards how to test all of the arguments. I mostly read this: https://docs.python.org/2.7/tutorial/controlflow.html#more-on-defining-functions I thought that maybe the Arbitrary Argument Lists section may be relevant, although the fact that tuples are immutable does make it to me rather unwieldy. If using @pytest.mark.parametrize is the most straightforward way (in terms of longevity of the solution), then I'll be happy to use that.

Sorry for the delay in my response for this issue. But I was only partly available last week and had to catch up with a couple of other needinfo/reviews too. I haven't had the time to go through the whole conversation you had with Maja regarding your patch, but seeing the referenced content in comment 24 I would agree that using @pytest.mark.parametrize would be a good way to go forward. It would help you to minimize the amount of code you would have to write/duplicate. Maybe get a start on it and let me know early via a work in progress patch how it works and looks like. So I can give an early feedback.

Here's my attempt to generalize the test to all the optional arguments listed in [1] using @pytest.mark.parametrize with a list of args. Moved all my changes to test_marionette_arguments.py. I tried to make the test look more like test_parse_arg_socket_timeout, but I wasn't sure what the equivalent of the argument `socket_timeout` would be for our test. I have used `self.add_argument`as the placeholder for the timebeing. I apologize in advance for how messy the arguments may appear; I couldn't think of a way to generalize everything except for putting them in tuples for the timebeing. Advice here would be appreciated. :-) [1]http://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/testing/marionette/harness/marionette_harness/runner/base.py#288-300

Comment on attachment 8889868 [details] [diff] [review] [marionette harness tests] Test that BaseMarionetteArguments constructs arguments as expected I've used the names `arg_name,arg_action,arg_destination,arg_help` for the corresponding options and what they (to me) seem to do. What should be standing between `marionette` and the parameters here: `['marionette', '--' + x, y]`? How do I set multiple instances/options for `--addon`, `--pref` and `--preferences`.

As I had stated in IRC, it seems that taking the above approach means that the test fails silently. It will only provide verbose output once we make arg_destination to be evaluated in addition to arg_name and arg_value. My way of testing was to write a small test.py file in my mozilla-central directory and assigning default arguments to arg_name, arg_destination and arg_file (=arg_value). The code is as follows: import pytest from marionette_harness.runtests import MarionetteArguments parser = MarionetteArguments() arg_file = 'somefile.ini' arg_name = 'pref' arg_destination = 'prefs_args' parsed_args = parser.parse_args(['marionette', '--' + arg_name, arg_destination, arg_file]) print parsed_args result = vars(parsed_args) print result Now the frequent print statements are to make sure that the output I expect is what is coming out at each step. With the introduction of arg_destination, this test only manages to print `parsed_args`, after which it fails with the following error message when I run `./mach python test.py`: user@localhost:~/src/mozilla-central$: ./mach python test.py usage: test.py [-h] [--binary BINARY] [--address ADDRESS] [--emulator] [--app APP] [--app-arg APP_ARGS] [--profile PROFILE] [--pref PREFS_ARGS] [--preferences PREFS_FILES] [--addon ADDONS] [--repeat REPEAT] [--run-until-failure] [--testvars TESTVARS] [--symbols-path SYMBOLS_PATH] [--startup-timeout STARTUP_TIMEOUT] [--shuffle] [--shuffle-seed SHUFFLE_SEED] [--total-chunks TOTAL_CHUNKS] [--this-chunk THIS_CHUNK] [--server-root SERVER_ROOT] [--gecko-log GECKO_LOG] [--logger-name LOGGER_NAME] [--jsdebugger] [--pydebugger PYDEBUGGER] [--socket-timeout SOCKET_TIMEOUT] [--disable-e10s] [--headless] [--tag TEST_TAGS] [--workspace WORKSPACE] [-v] [--emulator-binary EMULATOR_BIN] [--adb ADB_PATH] [--avd AVD] [--avd-home AVD_HOME] [--device DEVICE_SERIAL] [--package PACKAGE_NAME] [--browsermob-script BROWSERMOB_SCRIPT] [--browsermob-port BROWSERMOB_PORT] [tests [tests ...]] test.py: error: unrecognized arguments: somefile.ini When I remove arg_destination from the arguments above, `./mach python` runs successfully, giving me the following output: Namespace(adb_path=None, addons=None, address=None, app=None, app_args=[], avd=None, avd_home=None, binary=None, browsermob_port=None, browsermob_script=None, device_serial=None, e10s=True, emulator=False, emulator_bin=None, gecko_log=None, headless=False, jsdebugger=False, logger_name='Marionette-based Tests', package_name=None, prefs_args=['somefile.ini'], prefs_files=None, profile=None, pydebugger=None, repeat=None, run_until_failure=False, server_root=None, shuffle=False, shuffle_seed=5684732316316819051, socket_timeout=360.0, startup_timeout=60, symbols_path=None, test_tags=None, tests=['marionette'], testvars=None, this_chunk=None, total_chunks=None, verbose=None, workspace=None) {'startup_timeout': 60, 'browsermob_port': None, 'shuffle': False, 'verbose': None, 'package_name': None, 'socket_timeout': 360.0, 'app': None, 'symbols_path': None, 'app_args': [], 'emulator_bin': None, 'avd': None, 'prefs_files': None, 'jsdebugger': False, 'adb_path': None, 'binary': None, 'total_chunks': None, 'avd_home': None, 'gecko_log': None, 'pydebugger': None, 'e10s': True, 'profile': None, 'tests': ['marionette'], 'repeat': None, 'logger_name': 'Marionette-based Tests', 'address': None, 'run_until_failure': False, 'browsermob_script': None, 'this_chunk': None, 'test_tags': None, 'testvars': None, 'server_root': None, 'headless': False, 'prefs_args': ['somefile.ini'], 'emulator': False, 'workspace': None, 'addons': None, 'device_serial': None, 'shuffle_seed': 5684732316316819051} Your thoughts on this would be appreciated.

When you use marionette at the command-line, you only use arg_name, and possibly arg_value. For example: `marionette --pref somefile.ini`. arg_destination is an internal concept not exposed to the command-line user; it represents the variable name at which the value "somefile.ini" will get stored. In other words, when `marionette --pref somefile.ini` is parsed, argparse stores a reference to the list ["somefile.ini"] in prefs_args, which is what you see in the Namespace object you pasted. In your call to parse_args above, you are effectively passing in "marionette --pref prefs_args somefile.ini". This gets parsed as `prefs_arg=["prefs_args"]` in the Namespace, as I explained in the previous paragraph. Then "somefile.ini" is left over so the parser thinks that it's a whole other argument name, and it doesn't recognize it, which is why you see that error. You should read about how arguments are defined here: https://docs.python.org/2.7/library/argparse.html#argparse.ArgumentParser.add_argument In the test you want to write, arg_destination should be used later on when you check that the value actually got stored when instantiating BaseMarionetteTestRunner: that it defines self.app_args, self.addons, self.e10s, self.test_tags, as well as adb_path, emulator_bin, and package_name in self.extra_kwargs.

Here's my attempt to generalize the test to all the optional arguments listed in [1] using @pytest.mark.parametrize with a list of args. Moved all my changes to test_marionette_arguments.py. I've used the names `arg_name` for the argument name passed to marionette and `arg_file` for the file option. Running `./mach python-test testing/marionette/harness/marionette_harness/tests/harness_unit/test_marionette_arguments.py` goes through successfully as well.

Comment on attachment 8896641 [details] [diff] [review] [marionette harness tests] Test that BaseMarionetteArguments constructs arguments as expected After feeling stumped, I decided to re-read the comments and the associated references. It seems I got a little lost around the removal of fixtures and the usage of parametrize for the arguments. Re-reading Comment 27 made me realize that I had misunderstood how parametrize is to be used. Also Maya's explanation when I showed my demo approach in the test.py file further clarified what I had been doing wrong. So thanks for your patience Maya. I appreciate it. This should be good to go, barring any linting/PEP8 issues.

No, you don't need BaseMarionetteTestRunner in this test. However, the args I listed that are used in BaseMarionetteTestRunner should be checked in your test; they correspond to args created by BaseMarionetteArguments. In other words, reading BaseMarionetteTestRunner gives you context for what we're testing (the args I mentioned) and how they are used in the actual application. > > > ::: > > testing/marionette/harness/marionette_harness/tests/harness_unit/ > > test_marionette_arguments.py > > @@ +30,5 @@ > > > import sys > > > sys.exit(pytest.main( > > > ['--log-tbpl=-', __file__])) > > > + > > > +@pytest.mark.parametrize("arg_name, arg_file", [('pref', 'prefs_args'), ('preferences', 'prefs_files'), ('addon', 'addons')]) > > > > Please change "arg_file" to "arg_value", since it should represent any > > possible value for an argument, not necessarily a file. > > > > You also need a parameter like "arg_dest" to represent the destination. > > As for arg_value, you can infer this from the other info in the definition. > > For example, we know that pref is used like `--pref a:b`, so in parametrize, > > you would have "arg_name,arg_value,arg_dest" with > > ["pref","a:b","prefs_args"]. > For this, what would the generic argument be, because I can't see an > equivalent for `a:b` in base.py?

Yes.

[mass update] Setting priority

Removed if condition, now assert runs unconditionally. Evaluating `assert result.get(arg_name) == arg_dest` always returns false. Inspecting the execution indicates that the corresponding key:value pair in result is `'prefs_args':['prefs_args']`, the values stored in `arg_name` and `arg_dest` are read as `pref` and `prefs_args` respectively, meaning that `arg_name` is never equal to `arg_dest`. Something to try would be changing the string assigned to arg_dest, so that it comes out as `'prefs_args'` rather than just `prefs_args` and then changing the assert statement to `assert result.get(arg_dest) == arg_dest` may work. Added the parameters for the following BaseMarionetteTestRunner properties: self.app_args, self.addons, self.e10s, self.test_tags.

If you search base.py for "adb_path" for example, you'll find this: https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/testing/marionette/harness/marionette_harness/runner/base.py#463 They are added in a separate step, which you don't need to worry about, and they'll be recognized by the argument parser if you include them in your test. Thanks for working on this. I think we're almost there. :)

Added the parameters for the following BaseMarionetteTestRunner properties: self.app_args, self.addons, self.e10s, self.test_tags. Added parameters for adb_path, emulator_bin, and package_name in self.extra_kwargs Added a fourth parameter to store the value changed by argparse named `expected_value`. This is because the "action" for pref is "append" [1] Changed the assert to `assert result.get(arg_dest) == expected_value` from `assert result.get(arg_name) == [arg_dest]` disable-e10s (arg_name) is a boolean flag that stores false (arg_value) in e10s (arg_dest). So its parameters are set as False "samplevalue" is used so as to not mislead a future reader into thinking that we actually expect files for all those options. All tests pass when `./mach python-test testing/marionette/harness/marionette_harness/tests/harness_unit/test_marionette_arguments.py` is run [1]: http://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/testing/marionette/harness/marionette_harness/runner/base.py#285

Your test needs to check that when we create a MarionetteTestRunner and call its _build_kwargs method, the arg we parsed appears correctly in the result. So you need to use the mach_parsed_kwargs fixture, update it with the arg parsed by your test, instantiate MarionetteTestRunner, call _build_kwargs, check its return value: ``` result = vars(parsed_args) mach_parsed_kwargs[arg_dest] = result[arg_dest] runner = MarionetteTestRunner(**mach_parsed_kwargs) built_kwargs = runner._build_kwargs() assert built_kwargs[arg_dest] == expected_value ``` In parametrize, you only need the following: app-arg, app, symbols-path, gecko-log There are many other examples of using mach_parsed_kwargs in test_marionette_runner.py You can also make a second test that is very similar, but sets emulator to True: mach_parsed_kwargs["emulator"] = True first and checks the following in parametrize: adb, avd, avd-home, package ::: testing/marionette/harness/marionette_harness/tests/harness_unit/test_marionette_arguments.py @@ +30,5 @@ > import sys > sys.exit(pytest.main( > ['--log-tbpl=-', __file__])) > > +@pytest.mark.parametrize("arg_name, arg_dest, arg_value, expected_value", Please move your test to be above |if __name__ == '__main__'|

So first off, sorry for the lack of activity here (In reply to Maja Frydrychowicz (:maja_zf) from comment #44) > In parametrize, you only need the following: app-arg, app, symbols-path, > gecko-log I notice that these arguments are not like the previous ones we've been using in parametrize.

Yes

I'm not sure how to make sure `mach_parsed_kwargs` is successfully defined. Should I define the fixture afresh in test_marionette_arguments.py? When I tried importing it from conftest.py, I got errors saying that it couldn't be used to modify data. 0:04.38 TEST-UNEXPECTED-FAIL | test_marionette_arguments.py::test_parsing_optional_arguments[app-arg-app_args-samplevalue-expected_value0] | NameError: global name 'mach_parsed_kwargs' is not defined (line 40) Also I'm having a problem getting the modified test to work since only `app-args` has an `arg_dest` value. The rest don't. My approach was to have a placeholder empty value, but that causes the test to fail. Since even in the dict, the corresponding arguments have a value of `None`, is there a way to test that instead? 0:04.38 TEST-UNEXPECTED-FAIL | test_marionette_arguments.py::test_parsing_optional_arguments[symbols-path--samplevalue-samplevalue] | AssertionError: assert None == 'samplevalue' 0:04.38 + where None = <built-in method get of dict object at 0x7f29a641ec58>('') 0:04.38 + where <built-in method get of dict object at 0x7f29a641ec58> = {'adb_path': None, 'addons': None, 'address': None, 'app': None, ...}.get (line 39) 0:04.38 arg_name = 'symbols-path', arg_dest = '', arg_value = 'samplevalue' 0:04.38 expected_value = 'samplevalue' 0:04.38 0:04.38 @pytest.mark.parametrize("arg_name, arg_dest, arg_value, expected_value", 0:04.38 [('app-arg', 'app_args', 'samplevalue', ['samplevalue']), 0:04.38 ('symbols-path', '', 'samplevalue', 'samplevalue')]) 0:04.38 #('gecko-log', '', 'samplevalue', 'samplevalue'), 0:04.38 #('app', '', 'samplevalue', 'samplevalue') 0:04.38 def test_parsing_optional_arguments(arg_name, arg_dest, arg_value, expected_value): 0:04.38 parser = MarionetteArguments() 0:04.38 parsed_args = parser.parse_args(['--' + arg_name, arg_value]) 0:04.38 result = vars(parsed_args) 0:04.38 > assert result.get(arg_dest) == expected_value 0:04.38 E AssertionError: assert None == 'samplevalue' 0:04.38 E + where None = <built-in method get of dict object at 0x7f29a641ec58>('') 0:04.38 E + where <built-in method get of dict object at 0x7f29a641ec58> = {'adb_path': None, 'addons': None, 'address': None, 'app': None, ...}.get I have commented out the lines for easier troubleshooting. Will restore them once the test works for the first two.

pytest fixtures, like mach_parsed_kwargs, are not like other functions -- they don't need to be imported. Instead, pytest takes care of "finding" them. All you need to do is list mach_parsed_kwargs with the parameters of your test function: > test_parsing_optional_arguments(mach_parsed_kwargs, arg_name, arg_dest, arg_value, expected_value) For future reference, see: https://docs.pytest.org/en/latest/fixture.html Regarding arg_dest, when there is no arg_dest listed, it has a default value that is the same as the arg name, but with an underscore. So arg_dest for "symbols-path" is "symbols_path". See: https://docs.python.org/3/library/argparse.html#dest

Substituted the values of `symbols-path` with `symbols_path` in cases where the argument has no value for `arg_dest` as per [1]. Added `mach_parsed_kwargs` to the arguments for `test_parsing_optional_arguments` Added the new test for the emulator. Modified the 'samplevalue' argument for `adb` The new test for the emulator isn't passing. [1] https://docs.python.org/3/library/argparse.html#dest

Comment on attachment 8936405 [details] [diff] [review] [marionette harness tests] Test that BaseMarionetteArguments constructs arguments as expected Wasn't sure about what exactly we're to be testing as regards the emulator test. According to the dict that appears in the error, `adb_path: None`, so I wasn't sure if we're testing for a null value or something else.

Your last patch only shows a partial diff of changes. Please post a patch that shows a full diff of adding all the new tests. The reason the tests are failing is that you're not passing the argument you parse (e.g. gecko-log) to MarionetteTestRunner. You need to update mach_parsed_kwargs with the new argument: `mach_parsed_kwargs[arg_dest] = result[arg_dest]`

Patch that shows a full diff of adding all the new tests. Updated mach_parsed_kwargs with the new argument: `mach_parsed_kwargs[arg_dest] = result[arg_dest]` Tests pass successfully.

Fixed some flake8 formatting.

Please ask someone else to review your patch before it could be landed. Thanks!

As indicated inside the patch file and this bug history, the author is Leni Kadali, and I am the reviewer. Since Leni is a relatively new contributor, I added checkin-needed on their behalf and re-attached their patch file for them to correct the format.
