To better depict what I am saying follows some code.
$ sudo pip install pytest
$ sudo pip install pytest-xdist
$ py.test -vs test_dummy.py -n 2
#!/usr/bin/env python
"""
This is test_dummy.py
"""
import pytest
import time
@pytest.fixture(scope="function", params=["a1", "a2"])
def fix_dummy(request):
print "fix_dummy: parameter: %s" % (request.param, )
return request.param
def test_dummy1(fix_dummy):
print "parameter from fix_dummy: %s" %(fix_dummy, )
time.sleep(2)
Cheers,
Gonçalo
