Pytest. Rerun code in debug ignores launch.json config

[slavanorm]

Hello. Thanks for your work.

I experienced this bug when i had some customization for "debug tests" configuration in launch.json file.
Debug works, using customized cwd in launch.json, while it fails not finding cwd related imports when I click rerun.

After looking into project configuration, I should apologize in advance if this issue doesnt belong here,
as my launch.json uses type:python instead of recommended type:debugpy.
unfortunately, the same code is not capable to debug with debugpy at all.
maybe it requires different issue created?

Project organization:
root/
pyproject.toml (this should configure rootdir for pytest. it fails on rerun.)
src/
...
tests/
...

launch.json:

{
    // Use IntelliSense to learn about possible attributes.
    // Hover to view descriptions of existing attributes.
    // For more information, visit: https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=830387

        {

            "request": "launch",
            "module": "streamlit",
            "args": [
                "run",
                "${workspaceFolder}/src/main.py"
            ],
            "justMyCode": true,
            "console": "internalConsole",
            "envFile": "${workspaceFolder}/.env"
        },
        {
            "name": "Debug test file",
            "type": "python",
            "request": "launch",
            "console": "internalConsole",
            "purpose": [
                "debug-test"
            ],
            "env": {
                "_PYTEST_RAISE": "1",
                "PYTEST_ADDOPTS": "--no-cov"
            },
            "program": "${file}",
            "justMyCode": true,
        },
    ]

Thanks @slavanorm for your bug report, there is a know error for the reload behaviour in tests here. What I can help you with is to see the error when using type: debugpy. Can you share your Python Debugger Output Logs or the error that you are getting?

[slavanorm]

I couldn't manage to make tests work with debugpy at all.
Is it possible?

[paulacamargo25]

Yes, it should work for testing, Can you share your Python Debugger Output Logs or the error that you are getting?

[slavanorm]

unfortunately i dont have access to that code anymore.

i guess, this bug is already documented, right? we can close this issue then?
