#3803 Drop support for workarounds that were required for old pytest versions
Closed: cloned-to-github 3 years ago by pbrezina. Opened 5 years ago by jhrozek.

SSSD up to 2.0 had to support RHEL-6 with all the old package versions. In the case of pytest it meant we had to do some workarounds like:
- not being able to use pytest.mark.skipif to skip test if a feature is not available
- not being able to use parametrized fixtures to e.g. run the same KCM tests with different back ends just based on a parameter passed through the fixture

Since 2.0 will drop RHEL-6 support, we can get rid of these hacks.

That is available since pytest 2.0 and thus also on el6.
But you need to decorate each test e.g.

parametrized tests works as well I tried 1st one from
https://docs.pytest.org/en/latest/parametrize.html

sh-4.1$ cat test_expectation.py
# content of test_expectation.py

@pytest.mark.parametrize("test_input,expected", [
    ("3+5", 8),
    ("2+4", 6),
    ("6*9", 42),
])  
def test_eval(test_input, expected):
    assert eval(test_input) == expected

Just @pytest.param does not work But it does not work also with pytes-2.7.0 which is on el7
