Description
- Include a detailed description of the bug or suggestion
using reload(mymodule) or imp.reload(mymodule) inside a test is failing because _should_rewrite() gets called and it incorrectly thinks that mymodule is a conftest/test file when it is not and because of that it doesn't get reloaded.
The problem seems to be here:
pytest/src/_pytest/assertion/rewrite.py
Line 180 in 7e92930
where name is
xxxx.name1.name2
and self._must_rewrite is
set(['pytest_server_fixtures', 'tests', 'common_setup', 'setup', 'xdist', 'xxxx', 'xxxx.testing.pytest.name3', 'pytest_shutil', 'conftest', 'pytest_svn', 'pytest_verbose_parametrize', 'pytest_qt_app',
*note: xxxx is our company's namespace
so,
when name is 'xxxx.name1.name2' and marked is xxxx, name.startswith(..) returns True
This seems to result from the fact that we have a testing module inside our company's namespace. It is called xxxx.testing.
This used to work on pytest 2.9.1

pytest 3.7.2 (also tried on 3.0.6 and 3.1.0 and 2.9.1) - only 2.9.1 worked
- Minimal example if possible
have a namespace yyy with a namespace package yyy.testing that includes testing utilities. Then write tests for another package yyy.mymodule and use reload() inside the tests to re-initialize things inside mymodule
