pytest-fixture-rtttg

In the face of ambiguity, refuse the temptation to guess.

This plugin detects when you have two fixtures that share the same name, and throws an error in that case, instead of silently choosing the later/inner-most one.

Installation

pip install pytest-fixture-rtttg

After this, the plugin should automatically do its job.

Customization

When the duplicate name is intentional, you can use the dupe mark to stop this from happening:

@pytest.fixture
@pytest.mark.dupe
def some_fixture():
    ...

Usually though, you're better of just choosing a different name.
