To test a view, you need to set up a `Flask` app instance, and use it to invoke the views. Since setting up the `Flask` instance is quite costly, it’s important to reuse the instance as much as possible; in general we use Pytest’s [fixture scope](https://docs.pytest.org/en/stable/fixture.html#scope-sharing-fixtures-across-classes-modules-packages-or-session) for this; fixtures generating `Flask` instance would be marked either `module` or even `session` scoped so they can be reused by tests inside a `.py` file or for the entire `pytest` run. So it’d be very beneficial to first read and understand how Pytest fixtures, discoverer, and runner work. The test setup would make a lot more sense after that. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
