pytest-forked: run each test in a forked subprocess
====================================================
.. warning::
this is a extraction of the xdist --forked module,
future maintenance beyond the bare minimum is not planned until a new maintainer is found.
This plugin **does not work on Windows** because there's no ``fork`` support.
* ``--forked``: run each test in a forked
subprocess to survive ``SEGFAULTS`` or otherwise dying processes.

Installation
-----------------------
Install the plugin with::
pip install pytest-forked
or use the package in develope/in-place mode with
a checkout of the `pytest-forked repository`_ ::
pip install -e .
Usage examples
---------------------
If you have tests involving C or C++ libraries you might have to deal
with tests crashing the process. For this case you may use the boxing
options::
pytest --forked
which will run each test in a subprocess and will report if a test
crashed the process. You can also combine this option with
running multiple processes via pytest-xdist to speed up the test run
and use your CPU cores::
pytest -n3 --forked
this would run 3 testing subprocesses in parallel which each
create new forked subprocesses for each test.
You can also fork for individual tests::
@pytest.mark.forked
def test_with_leaky_state():
run_some_monkey_patches()
This test will be unconditionally boxed, regardless of CLI flag.
