GitMate.io thinks possibly related issues are #694 (Add a directory whitelist option), #2605 (request: add commandline option not to import from current directory), #2269 (conftest.py in root directory should not add root directory to sys.path), #2589 (Pytest adds parent instead of expected directory into python path. (shouldn't it add rootdir?)), and #585 (Add support for exclusive tests). |

@nicoddemus I want to try this. But would require some mentorship mainly regarding when to create the README and some navigation with the codebase. Also How to take the first step in solving this issue. |

Hi @avirlrma, That's great. I think for starters you can take a look at the Study the module a bit and let me know if there are any other questions 👍 |

Hi @nicoddemus |

Hi @avirlrma, yes I think so. 👍 |

This PR updates [pytest](https://pypi.org/project/pytest) from **3.6.4** to **3.7.0**. <details> <summary>Changelog</summary> ### 3.7.0 ``` ========================= Deprecations and Removals ------------------------- - `2639 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/2639>`_: ``pytest_namespace`` has been deprecated. See the documentation for ``pytest_namespace`` hook for suggestions on how to deal with this in plugins which use this functionality. - `3661 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3661>`_: Calling a fixture function directly, as opposed to request them in a test function, now issues a ``RemovedInPytest4Warning``. It will be changed into an error in pytest ``4.0``. This is a great source of confusion to new users, which will often call the fixture functions and request them from test functions interchangeably, which breaks the fixture resolution model. Features -------- - `2283 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/2283>`_: New ``package`` fixture scope: fixtures are finalized when the last test of a *package* finishes. This feature is considered **experimental**, so use it sparingly. - `3576 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3576>`_: ``Node.add_marker`` now supports an ``append=True/False`` parameter to determine whether the mark comes last (default) or first. - `3579 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3579>`_: Fixture ``caplog`` now has a ``messages`` property, providing convenient access to the format-interpolated log messages without the extra data provided by the formatter/handler. - `3610 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3610>`_: New ``--trace`` option to enter the debugger at the start of a test. - `3623 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3623>`_: Introduce ``pytester.copy_example`` as helper to do acceptance tests against examples from the project. Bug Fixes --------- - `2220 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/2220>`_: Fix a bug where fixtures overridden by direct parameters (for example parametrization) were being instantiated even if they were not being used by a test. - `3695 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3695>`_: Fix ``ApproxNumpy`` initialisation argument mixup, ``abs`` and ``rel`` tolerances were flipped causing strange comparsion results. Add tests to check ``abs`` and ``rel`` tolerances for ``np.array`` and test for expecting ``nan`` with ``np.array()`` - `980 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/980>`_: Fix truncated locals output in verbose mode. Improved Documentation ---------------------- - `3295 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3295>`_: Correct the usage documentation of ``--last-failed-no-failures`` by adding the missing ``--last-failed`` argument in the presented examples, because they are misleading and lead to think that the missing argument is not needed. Trivial/Internal Changes ------------------------ - `3519 <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues/3519>`_: Now a ``README.md`` file is created in ``.pytest_cache`` to make it clear why the directory exists. ``` </details> <details> <summary>Links</summary> - PyPI: https://pypi.org/project/pytest - Changelog: https://pyup.io/changelogs/pytest/ - Repo: https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest/issues - Homepage: http://pytest.org </details>

As discussed in #3286, we should add a quick README.md file explaining what's the purpose of the cache directory and how it can be configured in
pytest.inito point to somewhere else if desired.Bonus points if we add a new
PYTEST_CACHE_DIRenvironment variable to set this globally.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
