How can I remove the Environment table from the Pytest-Html report?

Answer 1

To delete the environment table:

You need pytest-metadata plugin.

from pytest_metadata.plugin import metadata_key


def pytest_configure(config):
    config.stash[metadata_key]["foo"] = "bar"

To hide entire environment section:

You can use css, here is how:

Create pytest.ini file and add:

[pytest]

addopts = --css=style.css

Now create style.css and add:

#environment-header,
#environment {
  display: none;
}
