Behavior when no tests failed in the last run
|
||||
---------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
When no tests failed in the last run, or when no cached ``lastfailed`` data was
|
||||
found, ``pytest`` can be configured either to run all of the tests or no tests,
|
||||
using the ``--last-failed-no-failures`` option, which takes one of the following values:
|
||||
The ``--lfnf/--last-failed-no-failures`` option governs the behavior of ``--last-failed``.
|
||||
Determines whether to execute tests when there are no previously (known)
|
||||
failures or when no cached ``lastfailed`` data was found.
|
||||
|
||||
There are two options:
|
||||
|
||||
* ``all``: when there are no known test failures, runs all tests (the full test suite). This is the default.
|
||||
* ``none``: when there are no known test failures, just emits a message stating this and exit successfully.
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: bash
|
||||
|
||||
pytest --last-failed --last-failed-no-failures all # run all tests (default behavior)
|
||||
pytest --last-failed --last-failed-no-failures none # run no tests and exit
|
||||
pytest --last-failed --last-failed-no-failures all # runs the full test suite (default behavior)
|
||||
pytest --last-failed --last-failed-no-failures none # runs no tests and exits successfully
|
||||
