Pytest fixture scope inspection¶

Pytest fixture scope inspection reports fixtures whose scope is narrower than a fixture they depend on.

How to use it¶

Open a pytest fixture that depends on another fixture with a broader scope. BetterPy highlights incompatible scope declarations.

When it helps¶

Use this inspection to catch scope mismatches before pytest fails collection or runtime fixture setup.

Notes¶

• BetterPy can offer a quick fix for compatible scope adjustments.
• The feature is gated by the Pytest fixture scope inspection setting under Settings | BetterPy | Testing (Pytest) | Fixture Inspections.
