Describe the bug

If a test in one test file has the same name as a test in another test file, and both try to do a snapshot, if we run pytest but deselect one of those tests then pytest fails erroneously saying that a snapshot is obsolete.

To reproduce

Create two test files (test_a.py and test_b.py) with the following contents:

def test_name(snapshot):
    assert snapshot == [1, 2, 3]


def test_other():
    assert True

Create the snapshots:

pytest --snapshot-update test_a.py test_b.py

Attempt to run all but test_b.py::test_name:

pytest test_a.py test_b.py::test_other

Result: pytest exits with status 1 saying:

--------------------------- snapshot report summary ---------------------------
1 snapshot passed. 1 snapshot unused.

Re-run pytest with --snapshot-update to delete unused snapshots.

Expected behavior

pytest should exit successfully and we shouldn't be told a snapshot is unused, because we didn't run the test that used it.

Screenshots

Should be clear from above.

Environment (please complete the following information):

  • OS: several (macOS, Linux)
  • Syrupy Version: 1.3.1
  • Python Version: 3.6 and 3.7 (and I assume all the others)

Additional context

None

Thanks for reporting this issue.

I have a fix in #531, just validating the correctness.

Unfortunately my first attempt didn't work. This is difficult since we make no assumptions around the extension being used (ambr vs. another extension). I've updated my PR with some more test coverage which has at least given me confidence that my first approach doesn't work. I'll give this some more thought.
