@given("employees informations are added", target_fixture="information_db")
def ensure_employees_informations_added():
return [_get_employee_information()]
My question is will the returned list be saved in "information_db" ? (I am new with working with pytest )
Looks like you are using pytest-bdd plugin in additional to bare pytest.
The plugin's documentation can be found at https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-bdd
Long story short, yes. The returned list will be saved under information_db name.
The next clause can access it by putting the target fixture's name into a list of the function's arguments:
@given("check employee")
def check_employee(information_db):
assert information_db[0]['skill'] == 42
