pythonpytest

py.test: error: unrecognized arguments: --cov=ner_brands --cov-report=term-missing --cov-config

when I am trying to run my test through command line

py.test  file_name.py

I got this error:

py.test: error: unrecognized arguments: --cov=ner_brands --cov-report=term-missing --cov-config

How can I fix this?

Solution

  • pytest-cov package is required if you want to pass --cov arguments to pytest. By default it is not passed though. Are you using a modified version of py.test?

    pip install pytest-cov

    would fix your issue.
