.. warning::
.. note::
This function must be implemented in a :ref:`plugin <pluginorder>`
and is called once at the beginning of a test run.
Implementing this hook from ``conftest.py`` files is **strongly**
discouraged because ``conftest.py`` files are lazily loaded and
may give strange *unknown option* errors depending on the directory
``py.test`` is invoked from.
This function should be implemented only in plugins or ``conftest.py``
files situated at the tests root directory due to how py.test
:ref:`discovers plugins during startup <pluginorder>`.
:arg parser: To add command line options, call
:py:func:`parser.addoption(...) <_pytest.config.Parser.addoption>`.
