pytest插件是否适用于python2.6

Question

I am new to pytest and I have python2.6 installed on my setup. I installed pytest and the testcases get executed properly. I installed couple of plugins like pytest-timeout, putest-xdist etc but these plugins does not load when I run the cases. For timeout, I get following error:
py.test: error: unrecognized arguments: --timeout
Same steps followed with python2.7 works. Any idea how this can be solved or alteast steps to debug to know what exactly is causing the issue.

Answer 1

Unfortunately pytest < 3.0 "hides" the ImportError happening when failing to import a plugin. If you remove all plugin arguments but add -rw , you should be able to see what exactly is going wrong in the warning summary.

Answer 2

In your conftest.py file just add the following line after the imports:

pytest_plugins = 'pytest_timeout'

It should solve your issue.
