Pytest - indows fatal exception: access violation

[Wrath-Man]

Hello,

I have a problem when run by pytest (with Playwright is ok). What is wrong?

Without more context or a minimal example reproducing your issue there's nothing we can do to help

AS this looks like a segfault, its easily possible that memory layout differences between a minimal script and using pytest make a difference

Also try to run with output capture disabled to see if strange output comes up

Based on the File "C:\Playwright\Project1\Lib\site-packages\win32comext\taskscheduler\test\test_addtask.py", line 23 in <module>, you seem to have a virtualenv directly in your project folder (rather than a subfolder like venv or .venv), leading pytest to collect this file (which then causes Python to crash for whatever reason).

Since you probably never meant to run that file at all, the solution here is probably "don't do that".
