usage: pytest [options] [file_or_dir] [file_or_dir] [...]
positional arguments:
file_or_dir
general:
-k EXPRESSION Only run tests matching the given keyword expression, e.g. -k 'test_method
or test_other', -k 'not (slow or network)'.
Names in the expression are matched case-insensitively as substrings of the
test's keywords, which are:
- its own name, including any parametrization id
- the names of its class, module and directories
- the names of the markers applied to it or to its parents
- attributes assigned directly to the test function
- any names in its 'extra_keyword_matches' set
Use -m to match marker names exactly, including their arguments.
-m MARKEXPR Only run tests matching given mark expression. For example: -m 'mark1 and
not mark2'.
--markers show markers (builtin, plugin and per-project ones).
-x, --exitfirst Exit instantly on first error or failed test
--maxfail=num Exit after first num failures or errors
--strict-config Enables the strict_config option
--strict-markers Enables the strict_markers option
--strict Enables the strict option
--fixtures, --funcargs
Show available fixtures, sorted by plugin appearance (fixtures with leading
'_' are only shown with '-v')
--fixtures-per-test Show fixtures per test
--pdb Start the interactive Python debugger on errors or KeyboardInterrupt
--pdbcls=modulename:classname
Specify a custom interactive Python debugger for use with --pdb.For example:
--pdbcls=IPython.terminal.debugger:TerminalPdb
--trace Immediately break when running each test
--capture=method Per-test capturing method: one of fd|sys|no|tee-sys
-s Shortcut for --capture=no
--runxfail Report the results of xfail tests as if they were not marked
--lf, --last-failed Rerun only the tests that failed at the last run (or all if none failed)
--ff, --failed-first Run all tests, but run the last failures first. This may re-order tests and
thus lead to repeated fixture setup/teardown.
--nf, --new-first Run tests from new files first, then the rest of the tests sorted by file
mtime
--cache-show=[CACHESHOW]
Show cache contents, don't perform collection or tests. Optional argument:

--lfnf, --last-failed-no-failures={all,none}
With ``--lf``, determines whether to execute tests when there are no
previously (known) failures or when no cached ``lastfailed`` data was found.
``all`` (the default) runs the full test suite again. ``none`` just emits a
message about no known failures and exits successfully.
--sw, --stepwise Exit on test failure and continue from last failing test next time
--sw-skip, --stepwise-skip
Ignore the first failing test but stop on the next failing test. Implicitly
enables --stepwise.
--sw-reset, --stepwise-reset
Resets stepwise state, restarting the stepwise workflow. Implicitly enables
--stepwise.

except passed (p/P), or (A)ll. (w)arnings are enabled by default (see
--disable-warnings), 'N' can be used to reset the list. (default: 'fE').
--disable-warnings, --disable-pytest-warnings
Disable warnings summary

loading of plugins, use the `no:` prefix, e.g. `no:doctest`. See also

plugins explicitly specified in -p or env var PYTEST_PLUGINS will be loaded.

Log format used by the logging module
--log-date-format=LOG_DATE_FORMAT
Log date format used by the logging module
--log-cli-level=LOG_CLI_LEVEL
CLI logging level

Log date format used by the logging module
--log-file=LOG_FILE Path to a file when logging will be written to
--log-file-mode={w,a}
Log file open mode
--log-file-level=LOG_FILE_LEVEL
Log file logging level

Log format used by the logging module
--log-file-date-format=LOG_FILE_DATE_FORMAT
Log date format used by the logging module

Auto-indent multiline messages passed to the logging module. Accepts
true|on, false|off or an integer.
--log-disable=LOGGER_DISABLE
Disable a logger by name. Can be passed multiple times.
distributed and subprocess testing:
-n, --numprocesses numprocesses
Shortcut for '--dist=load --tx=NUM*popen'.
With 'logical', attempt to detect logical CPU count (requires psutil, falls
back to 'auto').
With 'auto', attempt to detect physical CPU count. If physical CPU count
cannot be determined, falls back to 1.
Forced to 0 (disabled) when used with --pdb.
--maxprocesses=maxprocesses
Limit the maximum number of workers to process the tests when using
--numprocesses with 'auto' or 'logical'
--max-worker-restart=MAXWORKERRESTART
Maximum number of workers that can be restarted when crashed (set to zero to
disable this feature)
--dist=distmode Set mode for distributing tests to exec environments.
each: Send each test to all available environments.
load: Load balance by sending any pending test to any available environment.
loadscope: Load balance by sending pending groups of tests in the same scope
to any available environment.
loadfile: Load balance by sending test grouped by file to any available
environment.
loadgroup: Like 'load', but sends tests marked with 'xdist_group' to the
same worker.
worksteal: Split the test suite between available environments, then
re-balance when any worker runs out of tests.
(default) no: Run tests inprocess, don't distribute.
--loadscope-reorder Pytest-xdist will default reorder tests by number of tests per scope when
used in conjunction with loadscope.
This option will enable loadscope reorder which will improve the parallelism
of the test suite.
However, the partial order of tests might not be retained.
--no-loadscope-reorder
Pytest-xdist will default reorder tests by number of tests per scope when
used in conjunction with loadscope.
This option will disable loadscope reorder, and the partial order of tests
can be retained.
This is useful when pytest-xdist is used together with other plugins that
specify tests in a specific order.
--tx=xspec Add a test execution environment. Some examples:
--tx popen//python=python2.5 --tx socket=192.168.1.102:8888
--tx ssh=user@codespeak.net//chdir=testcache
--px=xspec Add a proxy gateway to pass to test execution environments using `via`.
Example:
--px id=my_proxy//socket=192.168.1.102:8888 --tx 5*popen//via=my_proxy
-d Load-balance tests. Shortcut for '--dist=load'.
--rsyncdir=DIR Add directory for rsyncing to remote tx nodes
--rsyncignore=GLOB Add expression for ignores when rsyncing to remote tx nodes
--testrunuid=TESTRUNUID
Provide an identifier shared amongst all workers as the value of the
'testrun_uid' fixture.
If not provided, 'testrun_uid' is filled with a new unique string on every
test run.
--maxschedchunk=MAXSCHEDCHUNK
Maximum number of tests scheduled in one step for --dist=load.
Setting it to 1 will force pytest to send tests to workers one by one -
might be useful for a small number of slow tests.
Larger numbers will allow the scheduler to submit consecutive chunks of
tests to workers - allows reusing fixtures.
Due to implementation reasons, at least 2 tests are scheduled per worker at
the start. Only later tests can be scheduled one by one.
Unlimited if not set.
-f, --looponfail Run tests in subprocess: wait for files to be modified, then re-run failing
test set until all pass.
Interrupt test run and dump stacks of all threads after a test times out:
--timeout=TIMEOUT Timeout in seconds before dumping the stacks. Default is 0 which
means no timeout.
--timeout_method={signal,thread}
Deprecated, use --timeout-method
--timeout-method={signal,thread}
Timeout mechanism to use. 'signal' uses SIGALRM, 'thread' uses a timer
thread. If unspecified 'signal' is used on platforms which support
SIGALRM, otherwise 'thread' is used.
--timeout-disable-debugger-detection
When specified, disables debugger detection. breakpoint(), pdb.set_trace(),
etc.
will be interrupted by the timeout.
--session-timeout=SECONDS
Timeout in seconds for entire session. Default is None which
means no timeout. Timeout is checked between tests, and will not interrupt a
test
in progress.
Hypothesis:
--hypothesis-profile=HYPOTHESIS_PROFILE
Load in a registered hypothesis.settings profile
--hypothesis-verbosity={quiet,normal,verbose,debug}
Override profile with verbosity setting specified
--hypothesis-show-statistics
Configure when statistics are printed
--hypothesis-seed=HYPOTHESIS_SEED
Set a seed to use for all Hypothesis tests
--hypothesis-explain Enable the `explain` phase for failing Hypothesis tests
anyio:
--anyio-mode=ANYIO_MODE
'auto' - All async test functions will be handled by AnyIO pytest plugin
'strict' - Disabling autoprocessing(useful when anyio tests
need to coexist with other async test plugins)
