setup_* executed before all fixtures #517
Description
Originally reported by: Haak Saxberg (BitBucket: haaksmash, GitHub: haaksmash)
consider the following dummy test file:
#!python
import pytest
@pytest.yield_fixture(scope="session", autouse=True)
def print_session():
print "session fixture"
yield
print "session teardown"
class TestClass(object):
def setup_method(self, method):
print "method setup"
def teardown_method(self, method):
print "method teardown"
def test_printer(self):
print "test method"
pytest --capture=no test_file.py will generate the following output:
#!bash
==================== test session starts ====================

it looks like all setup_* methods are invoked before any fixtures are processed, but the teardown_* methods are called in the order you'd expect:
- method_fixture post-yield
- method_teardown
- class_fixture post-yield
- class_teardown
- module_fixture post-yield
- module_teardown
etc, etc.
that doesn't seem right, especially since the teardowns are in the correct order. In fact it's pretty bad, because you might (I would think rightly) depend on the session having been set up already in your setup_method.
