What was the problem/requirement? (What/Why)
The
deadline-cloud-worker-agentrepository had a configuration setting to force use console color output. This was done to ensure pytest output is colorized in GitHub actions (see pytest-dev/pytest#7462 and actions/runner#241 for background on this issue).Forcing color output negatively impacts legibility in CodeBuild where we run our integration and e2e tests.
What was the solution? (How)
Remove the configuration in
pyproject.tomlto force colorized pytest output. Legibility is more important than colorized output.What is the impact of this change?
Test output is more legible in CodeBuild and GitHub actions will no longer have colorized output. There is no change for running tests in a terminal. Pytest correctly detects the terminal and colorizes output.
How was this change tested?
Ran the tests with:
The tests succeed and are colorized locally
Was this change documented?
No
Is this a breaking change?
No
