It's designed for scenarios where you need to collect metrics, benchmarks, or other artifacts from individual tests and analyze them as a group\u2014rather than just pass/fail results.\n\nThe package works by providing hooks into pytest's execution lifecycle. You store data during test runs (typically via fixtures or direct API calls), and pytest-harvest holds that data in memory, making it queryable once all tests complete. This is particularly useful for applicative benchmarking, where you want to gather performance numbers from many test cases and analyze them together, or for collecting structured test artifacts that need post-processing.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need to collect and aggregate data across multiple tests for benchmarking or post-test analysis. The package is production-stable, has low install friction, and carries no security vulnerabilities. The aging status (881 days since release) is a minor concern but not a blocker if pytest compatibility remains adequate; verify that it works with your pytest version before committing to it."},"id":"pytest-harvest","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pytest-harvest","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pytest-harvest.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/pytest-harvest/"},"maintenance":{"status":"aging"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2024-03-16","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"pytest-harvest","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"Store data created during your pytest tests execution, and retrieve it at the end of the session, e.g. for applicative benchmarking purposes."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":730549,"position":5212,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.10.5"}
