New pytest members¶

New pytest members adds Generate menu actions for creating pytest tests and fixtures in the current scope.

How to use it¶

Open a module or class matching the configured pytest collection naming, then run Generate | pytest test or Generate | pytest fixture.

When it helps¶

Use these actions when adding tests or fixtures near the caret without manually typing boilerplate or decorators.

Notes¶

• New test names and fixture names are generated uniquely for the current file or class.
• Fixture generation imports pytest when needed.
• Test and fixture generation are hidden when neither the current module nor the containing class matches the configured pytest collection naming.
• Test generation is hidden in conftest.py, while fixture generation remains available there.
• The feature is gated by the New pytest members setting under Settings | BetterPy | Testing (Pytest) | Fixtures.
