PATH issue with pytest 'ImportError: No module named YadaYadaYada'

Question

I used easy_install to install pytest on a mac and started writing tests for a project with a file structure likes so:

repo/
repo/app.py
repo/settings.py
rep         


        

Answer 1

I was getting this error due to something even simpler (you could even say trivial). I hadn't installed the pytest module. So a simple apt install python-pytest fixed it for me.

'pytest' would have been listed in setup.py as a test dependency. Make sure you install the test requirements as well.
