pytest-avoidance 0.2.0

Makes pytest skip tests that don not need rerunning

Makes pytest skip tests that don’t need rerunning

How pytest-avoidance avoids tests

Each test is run with coverage enabled.

After running each test, pytest-avoidance stores a list of which files each test touched.

The next time a test run is requested, pytest-avoidance checks if any of the files covered by this test have changed. If none have, the test can be delared to PASS, even without running it!

pytest-avoidance does not cache failures. Mostly because AFAIU bazel doesn’t either, and I’m just guessing they have good reasons not to…
