Why does pytest needs to connect to a redis ?

[Andromelus]

• pytest 6.1.0
• python 3.5.2

(Stuck with these, so upgrade is not a solution)

When running a very simple test (code bellow), pytest actually does two tests (as I understand the logs). The actual test and some connexion to Redis test.

The test

import pytest


class TestSample:
    def test_assert_toto(self):
        """[summary]
        """
        assert type("") == str

When running the following command:

pytest -v hadoop/test_sample.py

The output is the following (complete logs/stacktrace in attached file):

• Why is there something doing another thing with redis at teardown ?
• How can I avoid it, or at least suppress its logs ?

Thanks ! 😃

at first glance this is based on the addok plugin, i wasn't even aware it exists, please check with the maintainers of that plugin

As a "fun" fact, when uninstalling addok and re running the tests, everything works fine... 🤷🏻
