xfiles

✓ from pytest_xfiles import xfiles

✗ from pytest_xfiles import xfiles

Debug

Known issues

deprecatedpytest-xfiles has not been updated since 2016; may not work with newer pytest versions (>5).

fix

Consider alternative fixtures or pin pytest version.

affects: 0.2.0

gotchaThe xfiles fixture returns a function, not the file content directly. You must call it.

fix

Use xfiles() to read the content, not just reference the fixture.

affects: all

gotchaXfile naming convention expects specific file extensions and paths; deviation leads to FileNotFoundError.

fix

Ensure xfile follows the naming pattern: test_func.xfile or test_func/*.xfile.

affects: all
