In pytest, how can I figure out if a test failed? (from "request")
pytest, python, selenium, testing
Solution
It can be done, not directly though. I just added an example to the docs. It probably makes sense to makes this easier by default, i.e. without requiring the use of a conftest.py hook. If you agree, please file an issue.
Problem
I'm using Selenium with PYTEST to test a site. I would like to take a screenshot of the page whenever a test fails (and only when it fails). Is there a way that I can do this? The docs are quiet when it comes to this (or I can't find it). I would assume that it would be something like ``` request.function.failed ``` and it would return a boolean or something. This is what I wanted to do: ``` @pytest.fixture() def something(request): if request.function.failed: print "I failed" ``` This would be added to a finalizer, of course. Can it be done? Using pytest 2.3.3 Thanks.
