It solves the problem of Pylint raising false-positive warnings when analyzing pytest fixtures and test functions\u2014for example, flagging fixture parameters as unused arguments even though pytest injects them at runtime. The plugin suppresses four common false positives (unused-argument, unused-import, redefined-outer-name, and no-member) that occur when fixtures are properly used but not referenced in the function body.\n\nBeyond suppression, the plugin also raises four new warnings to catch deprecated or problematic pytest patterns: deprecated-pytest-yield-fixture (for the old @pytest.yield_fixture decorator), useless-pytest-mark-decorator (for @pytest.mark.* on fixtures where it has no effect), deprecated-positional-argument-for-pytest-fixture (for positional arguments to @pytest.fixture), and cannot-enumerate-pytest-fixtures (when the plugin cannot analyze fixtures in a test module). It requires pylint and pytest>=4.6 and is enabled by loading it as a Pylint plugin.","worth_installing":"Yes. This is a low-friction, actively maintained plugin that solves a real problem: Pylint's inability to understand pytest's fixture injection model. If you run Pylint on pytest test code, this plugin will eliminate noise and catch genuine pytest anti-patterns. No security issues, permissive license, and production-stable."},"id":"pylint-pytest","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pylint-pytest","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pylint-pytest.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/pylint-pytest/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2024-05-23","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"pylint-pytest","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"A Pylint plugin to suppress pytest-related false positives."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":600624,"position":5820,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.1.8"}
