pytestmark isn't working for fixtures

[fruch]

using fixtures pytestmark is casuing a test to be skipped:

    @pytest.fixture(scope="session")
    def preparations():
        pass

    @pytest.fixture
    def app():
        return application

    pytestmark = pytest.mark.usefixtures("preparations")

    @pytest.mark.gen_test
    def test_hello_world(http_client, base_url):
         pass

while using is as decorator, it does work:

    @pytest.mark.usefixtures("preparations")
    @pytest.mark.gen_test
    def test_hello_world(http_client, base_url):
         pass

(Didn't had time to actually debug it and check what's the difference, my guess something in the test collection hooks in pytest-tornado)

I think you're right, it seems to be related to collection of hooks.

Recent py.test adds hookwrapper which changes how hooks are being invoked. Your example works without any code change with 2.7.0.

Thanks... For the information , I would add it to the docs as warning, but I'm away from my laptop. On Apr 28, 2015 10:20 AM, "Eugeniy Kalinin" notifications@github.com wrote:

As far as I can tell, this was resolved for pytest >= 2.7 (see 8fb97711dd84512a8a654de3dca2bee24689a2a7). Closing for now, but feel free to comment about any remaining problems, and I will reopen.
