PyTest - Test Organization

You want to organize tests for a large project using pytest. You create nested folders with __init__.py files like this:

tests/
  __init__.py
  unit/
    __init__.py
    test_utils.py
  integration/
    __init__.py
    test_api.py

How can you run only the integration tests using pytest?

ARun <code>pytest tests/</code> and pytest will run only integration tests automatically

BRun <code>pytest tests/integration/</code> to run only integration tests

CRun <code>pytest tests/unit/</code> to run integration tests

DRemove __init__.py files to run only integration tests

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Understand folder-based test selection
pytest runs tests in the folder path you specify. To run only integration tests, specify the integration folder.
Step 2: Confirm effect of nested __init__.py files
Nested __init__.py files mark subfolders as packages but do not affect running tests by folder path.
Final Answer:
Run pytest tests/integration/ to run only integration tests -> Option B
Quick Check:
Run pytest on specific folder to run its tests = A [OK]

Quick Trick: Run pytest on specific test folder to run only those tests [OK]
