crosszip

crosszip is a Python utility that makes it easy to apply a function to all possible combinations of elements from multiple iterables. It combines the power of the Cartesian product and functional programming into a single, intuitive tool.

Additionally, @pytest.mark.crosszip_parametrize is a pytest marker that simplifies running tests with all possible combinations of parameter values.

Installation

Package Manager	Installation Command
pip	pip install crosszip
uv	uv pip install crosszip

Usage

Example of using crosszip:

# Label Generation for Machine Learning

from crosszip import crosszip


def create_label(category, subcategory, version):
    return f"{category}_{subcategory}_v{version}"


categories = ["cat", "dog"]
subcategories = ["small", "large"]
versions = ["1.0", "2.0"]

labels = crosszip(create_label, categories, subcategories, versions)
print(labels)

['cat_small_v1.0', 'cat_small_v2.0', 'cat_large_v1.0', 'cat_large_v2.0', 'dog_small_v1.0', 'dog_small_v2.0', 'dog_large_v1.0', 'dog_large_v2.0']

Example of using pytest marker crosszip_parametrize:

# Testing Power Function

import math
import crosszip
import pytest


@pytest.mark.crosszip_parametrize(
    "base",
    [2, 10],
    "exponent",
    [-1, 0, 1],
)
def test_power_function(base, exponent):
    result = math.pow(base, exponent)
    assert result == base**exponent
