Didn't someone work on this during the sprint? Also, while this is a nice feature, it shouldn't block 3.0. Changing the milestone to 3.1 for now. |

+ Use `--rootdir` to set the rootdir ahead of time and use the buildroot
for sensible RHS paths in `-v` output (previously we only had sensible
LHS paths via the `NodeRenamerPlugin`). This option was introduced
relatively recently in 3.5.0:
https://docs.pytest.org/en/latest/changelog.html#pytest-3-5-0-2018-03-21
pytest-dev/pytest#1642
+ Control the `.pytest_cachedir` location with `-o` and move it into the
task workdir (defaults to the `--rootdir` otherwise).
+ Simplify `pytest.ini` nullification by pointing to os.devnull instead
of embedding an empty `pytest.ini` in the pytest pex.

The root directory discovery is convoluted, and there are cases where it fails to resolve to a suitable path. We should improve the discovery as much as possible, but it also makes sense to provide a way for users to explicitly specify the root directory.
We could add a
--rootdircommand line option, which would be relative to the invocation directory. We could also add arootdirconfiguration key, which would override the command line option, and would be relative to the configuration file.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
