I've got some fixtures loaded with pytest_plugins, these fixtures were doing a top level import of models.
So this was triggering an issue due to early import of the models. I've resolved by removing the top level imports.
What's odd is that running the tests wasn't hitting the issue, presumably because of a different code path for the test run vs --help.
Is there a workaround to force django.setup() in --help etc?
With:
pytest==8.3.3
pytest-django==4.9.0
