PyTest - Parametrize

You want to test a fixture config that reads a file path from parameters and loads data. You have two file paths: "file1.json" and "file2.json". How do you correctly parametrize the test to pass these paths to the fixture using indirect parametrization, when there are other direct parameters?

A@pytest.mark.parametrize('config', ["file1.json", "file2.json"], indirect=['config'])

B@pytest.mark.parametrize('config', ["file1.json", "file2.json"])

C@pytest.mark.parametrize('config', ["file1.json", "file2.json"], indirect=True)

D@pytest.mark.parametrize('config', ["file1.json", "file2.json"], indirect=False)

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Identify indirect parameter usage for single fixture
When passing parameters to a fixture, use indirect=['fixture_name'] to mark that parameter indirect.
Step 2: Apply to config fixture
Since only config is indirect, use indirect=['config'] with the list of file paths.
Final Answer:
@pytest.mark.parametrize('config', ["file1.json", "file2.json"], indirect=['config']) -> Option A
Quick Check:
Use indirect=['config'] to pass params to fixture [OK]

Quick Trick: Use indirect=['fixture_name'] to pass params to fixture [OK]

Common Mistakes:

MISTAKES

Using indirect=True instead of list for single param
Not using indirect causing fixture to miss parameters
Setting indirect=False disables indirect passing
