I have already installed kdevelop and all it's packages from dnf but they don't kdev-python from https://invent.kde.org/kdevelop/kdev-python. So I am trying it to build from source. I have all the dependency but I am getting error when I type command 'cmake ..'. I have installed all the dependency using dnf. Also I have python3 installed. I am following instruction from INSTALL file of repository.
Following is output of command cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=debug -DKDE4_BUILD_TESTS=true:-

This is caused by your distro (Fedora?) building KDevelop with its self-tests disabled by -DBUILD_TESTING=OFF - a non-standard configuration not recommended by upstream. kdev-python depends on KDevelop's self-test code for its own self-tests.
It might help to install kdevelop-devel or kdevelop-libs if you haven't already, they exist but I'm not familiar with Fedora packaging.
Otherwise you can hack around this by building kdev-python with its tests disabled in turn: cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=debug -DBUILD_TESTING=OFF.
A better solution would be to build and install KDevelop locally without -DBUILD_TESTING=OFF before building kdev-python.
P.S. I don't know where you found -DKDE4_BUILD_TESTS=true but don't use it, it's obsolete and won't help you.
