PyTest - Parametrize
What is the main benefit of using @pytest.mark.parametrize in tests?
AIt reduces the number of test files needed.
BIt makes tests run faster by skipping some cases.
CIt automatically fixes bugs in the code.
DIt runs the same test multiple times with different inputs to increase coverage.
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:

  1. Step 1: Understand parametrize purpose

    The @pytest.mark.parametrize decorator runs one test function multiple times with different input values.

  2. Step 2: Effect on test coverage

    Running tests with varied inputs increases coverage by checking more cases without writing extra test functions.

  3. Final Answer:

    It runs the same test multiple times with different inputs to increase coverage. -> Option D

  4. Quick Check:

    Parametrize = multiple inputs, more coverage [OK]
Quick Trick: Parametrize repeats tests with different data for more coverage [OK]
Common Mistakes:
MISTAKES
  • Thinking parametrize skips tests
  • Believing it fixes bugs automatically
  • Confusing it with reducing test files
