Q1Domain Verified
In the context of pytest, what is the primary mechanism by which pytest discovers and runs tests, especially when dealing with larger project structures or non-standard naming conventions?
A predefined set of file and directory names that pytest strictly adheres to.
A combination of default discovery rules (e.g., `test_*.py` or `*_test.py`) and the ability to explicitly specify test files or directories on the command line.
A configuration file (e.g., `pytest.ini` or `pyproject.toml`) where test directories and patterns are explicitly defined.
A sophisticated AI that dynamically analyzes code for potential test cases based on function signatures and docstrings.
Q2Domain Verified
When using pytest fixtures, what distinguishes a `session` scoped fixture from a `module` scoped fixture in terms of its execution lifecycle and potential impact on test performance and resource management?
A `session` scoped fixture runs once per test session (across all modules), while a `module` scoped fixture runs once per test module.
Both `session` and `module` scoped fixtures run once per test function, but `session` fixtures can access global variables.
`session` scoped fixtures are primarily for setup and teardown, while `module` scoped fixtures are for providing test data.
A `session` scoped fixture runs once per test module, while a `module` scoped fixture runs once per test session.
Q3Domain Verified
Consider a scenario where you have a complex pytest test suite, and you want to run only tests that are tagged with a specific marker, say `@pytest.mark.integration`. What is the most efficient and idiomatic pytest command-line approach to achieve this?
`pytest --select integration`
`pytest -k integration`
`pytest --run-markers integration`
`pytest -m integration`
