I am using PyTest framework for writing and running my tests.
I have implemented a concrete logger:
class Logger(object):
class LogFormats:
...
def __init__(self, testname ,setup ,silent=True):
"""
creating concrete logger for pytest.
the logger will create a file for the test in specific test directory in quali FS and will
write to this file all test log output (colored).
:param: testname: test name - recieved from pytest fixtures (command line parameters)
:param: setup: test setup - recieved from pytest fixtures (command line parameters)
:param: silent: log test in silent mode (info only) or not silent mode (everything is logged)
:param: root_password: password for root user
"""
....
...
and in the conftest.py file I wrote the function that will be invoked when this logger will be requested (creating a logger fixture)
@pytest.fixture(scope="module",autouse=True)
def logger(request):
setup = request.config.getoption('--setupname')
logger = Logger(testname=request.node.name, setup=setup)
return logger
Now, my question is how do I make this concrete logger global using pytest?
Meaning I don't want to pass it as argument to the test function like this:
def test_logger(other_fixture,logger):
but still be able to use it inside the test_logger test function (like global variable)
