ContextVar not propagated from fixture to test

[andredias]

As pytest-asyncio, it seems that alt-pytest-asyncio also doesn't propagate ContextVar to tests. Instead of duplicating the problem description, I will list the references to the issue below:

• ContextVar not propagated from fixture to test #127
• Fix contextvars not propagated from fixture to test #161
• How To Write Asynchronous Code With Contextvars Properly

Hello,

I've never worked with context vars before. I might have time to look today, this sounds more interesting than what I was gonna do hahah

I've got a new issue on alt-pytest-asyncio that might be related to #8 since the library databases relies on ContextVars. I created a minimal example to show the problem:

from collections.abc import AsyncIterable

from databases import Database
from pytest import fixture


@fixture
async def db() -> AsyncIterable[Database]:
    db: Database = Database("sqlite:///", force_rollback=True)
    await db.connect()
    try:
        yield db
    finally:
        await db.disconnect()


async def test_db(db: Database) -> None: ...

It is just one test_1.py file that is supposed to be run by pytest test_issue.py. It is supposed to run flawlessly but I get this error:

The test not only fails but it also hangs.

Note that databases uses a contexVar

Setup

To run this snippet, you need:

• databases[aiosqlite]
• pytest
• alt-pytest-asyncio

Can you help me solve that?

Hello, I should have time on the weekend to take a look :)

Thanks!

The exact same issue was reported here. There is another comment in the previous link that mentions anyio pytest-plugin as a possible solution.

I saw somewhere else about using asyncio.Runner to keep the context among different tasks.

Turns out that very much wasn't the case, we'll see if I do this weekend.

@andredias

I saw somewhere else about using asyncio.Runner to keep the context among different tasks.

I tried using asyncio.Runner against the changes already in that PR and it got messy really quick. I'd need to do some very invasive surgery to this project to use that properly and I don't have the time atm.

Also, it would require the project being python 3.11 and above. I have put in that change into the PR anyway cause it removed one of the hacks the original attempt was doing.

Does that PR work for you now? #9

Fixed as part of the 0.8.0 release
