It displays a real-time one-line summary of which test has failed while tests are running, and after completion shows a table of all failures with both test line numbers and error line numbers\u2014eliminating the need to scroll through verbose output to find what broke.\n\nThe plugin requires only pytest and rich as runtime dependencies, making it lightweight to add to existing projects. It works on Python 3.9 through 3.13 and includes a pytester_pretty fixture for testing pytest plugins themselves. The output is particularly useful in CI environments like GitHub Actions when the terminal width is configured appropriately.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you run pytest regularly and want faster failure navigation. The low install friction, permissive license, and lack of security vulnerabilities make it safe to add. The aging maintenance status (436 days since last release) is a minor concern but not a blocker\u2014the plugin is stable and the repository remains active. Install it if your test suites are large enough that output readability matters."},"id":"pytest-pretty","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pytest-pretty","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/pytest-pretty.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/pytest-pretty/"},"maintenance":{"status":"aging"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2025-06-04","license_spdx":"MIT","license_treatment":"permissive","name":"pytest-pretty","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"pytest plugin for printing summary data as I want it"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":1217846,"position":4204,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.3.0"}
