Introduction

A pytest plugin to measure fixture and test durations.

In order to get the pure test setup/teardown durations, plugin subtracts time taken by fixtures which scope is larger than "function".

Installation

$ pip install pytest-durations

Plugin options

pytest-durations:
  --pytest-durations=N  Show N slowest setup/test durations (N=0 to disable
                        plugin). Default 30
  --pytest-durations-min=N
                        Minimal duration in seconds for inclusion in slowest
                        list. Default 0.005

Note: please don't be mistaken by --duration options which comes from pytest itself.
