如果py.test在覆盖范围内运行，是否可以跳过该测试？

Question

I'm adding some performance smoke tests to our test suite, and they fail spectacularly when running py.test with coverage. This isn't very surprising, nor an indication of a performance issue (timings under coverage don't relate to anything real..)

How do I mark (ie. pytest.mark.skipif(..) ) these tests so they're automatically skipped during coverage runs?

I'm using PyCharm during development if it is relevant.

That should be quite doable, using the pytest config object. See the very last example on Skip and xfail :

@pytest.mark.skipif(not pytest.config.getvalue("db"),
                    reason="--db was not specified")
def test_function(...):
    pass

I imagine what you want is just

@pytest.mark.skipif(pytest.config.getvalue("--cov"),
                    reason="--cov not compatible with smoke tests")

( ETA: The destination of cov is actually cov_source , which is why it didn't recognise cov . Putting --cov seems like a safer bet as it matches the option you actually type and doesn't require you to know the code internals.)
