How to apply multiple tags to a test case in pytest?

In pytest you can mark a test case with a tag. 

@pytest.mark.windows
def test_will_fail():
    assert False

Now above test case is marked with the tag 'windows'. Running pytest with pytest -m windows will execute only test cases which are marked with the tag 'windows'.

But what if I want to apply more than one tag? e.g. I would like to tag above test case with 'windows' and 'smoke'. How would I do that? (I haven't seen an example on that in pytest docs.)

Solution

  • Those are simply Python decorators which you can stack:

    @pytest.mark.smoke
@pytest.mark.windows
def test_will_fail():
    assert False
