Need help to solve this error

[nicoddemus]

The gist is:

pkg_resources.VersionConflict: (pytest 2.8.7 (/Users/rupsankar/Documents/Mobile/securehomegateway-automation/.tox/py27/lib/python2.7/site-packages), Requirement.parse('pytest>=2.9'))

Something is requiring pytest >=2.9, but something is installing 2.8.7. Can you post your tox file?

[RonnyPfannschmidt]

this looks like a clear user error, you pinned pytest==2.8.7 and one of your dependencies needs pytest >=2.9

[rsmamidi]

@RonnyPfannschmidt How can get to know what dependence need pytest update, and i don't want to change the pytest version . it will disturb my android setup

i had Automation suit on appium -python / pytest for android now i want to use the same scripts for ios as well .

[RonnyPfannschmidt]

likely pytest-html or one of the other pytest plugins, they dropped support for rather old pytest versions in their recent versions

[rsmamidi]

@RonnyPfannschmidt i need your help for configuring pytest in mac for doing IOS - appium automation , it will be good help if you can tell the list of dependency and their versions.

any usefull links also please share.

[RonnyPfannschmidt]

@rsmamidi i cant help with that, i dont own a mac and have no idea about appium automation

[obestwalter]

@rsmamidi a quick suggestion how you could find that out on your own:

Remove all deps in your tox.ini except for pytest==2.8.7 then start readding the other deps, one by one and always run tox in between. At some time it will crash and you knwo which package causes the problem.

[The-Compiler]

Why do you need to keep using an old version of pytest though? There have been a lot of fixes since 2.8.7.

[rsmamidi]

guys i solve the issues in mac now... @obestwalter your suggestion help me to fine the dependence issues. previously i use tox to run the test suit now i am running in virtual env to run my suit and works perfectly . Thanks for all the support

[obestwalter]

Great to hear @rsmamidi :)
