Test collection fails with unknown hook pytest_xdist_auto_run_workers

[lukaspiatkowski]

Type: Bug

I am using pytest-xdist==1.34.0 and I have "python.testing.pytestEnabled" on. Opening Testing tab triggers testing collection which fails. When it first happened I still had the capability to run tests, so I've tried it and the tests also crashed with the same error:

pluggy._manager.PluginValidationError: unknown hook "pytest_xdist_auto_run_workers" in plugin <vscode_pytest.DeferPlugin object at ...>

I've managed to work around this by passing "-p no:xdist" to the pytestArgs, but that is not ideal.

This is most likely a result of #23539, would it be possible to check the version of xdist here? I assume the error is caused by me using an old version of xdist, but I am unable to upgrade it now.

[eleanorjboyd]

Hi! Saw you closed this- did you upgrade your version and that fixed it?

[lukaspiatkowski]

Nope, I just mentioned this issue on a PR that adds the -p no:xdist on a private repository and I've used an unfortunate set of words (temporarily fixing), so GitHub automatically closed this issue after I've merged my PR. But the -p no:xdist seems to be a poor solution, because AFAIU this means running the tests with no parallelization in VSCode, right?

This broke for me as well in v2024.10.0, I worked around the issue by reverting back to an older version of vscode python extension.

[lukaspiatkowski]

Any updates here? I was hoping this will make the cut for the next release :)

[eleanorjboyd]

Hi @lukaspiatkowski, we have just made more changes in this area to help with compatability. Could you give this a try tomorrow on the newest version of the python extension (the pre-release one) that comes out tomorrow and let me know if it works for you?

[lukaspiatkowski]

Hi @eleanorjboyd, I have tried the v2024.11.2024072301 Python extension and still have errors. Here are example logs from a single test run. Test discovery itself also fails (traceback here), although it looks like you have implemented some caching mechanism as I can still see tests collected successfully (presumably from past attempts) and failed discovery at the same time (thanks, this functionality is very useful!)

Hi @tensoren-likai! I am not see any example logs, could you try sending them again? Thanks

[lukaspiatkowski]

@eleanorjboyd seems like @tensoren-likai send my message repeated by mistake, see my original message above for link to logs
