Can't get get_fti/get_behaviors to work

[ewohnlich]

I can't get the get_fti and get_behaviors fixtures to work, the underlying queryUtility returns None. I assume this is actually a problem with setting up the test environment, but I think at the least it should document what you need to do to use these fixtures. This is the most minimalist setup I've used to recreate it:

conftest.py

from Products.CMFPlone.testing import PRODUCTS_CMFPLONE_FUNCTIONAL_TESTING
from Products.CMFPlone.testing import PRODUCTS_CMFPLONE_INTEGRATION_TESTING
from pytest_plone import fixtures_factory


pytest_plugins = ["pytest_plone"]


globals().update(
    fixtures_factory(
        (
            (PRODUCTS_CMFPLONE_FUNCTIONAL_TESTING, "functional"),
            (PRODUCTS_CMFPLONE_INTEGRATION_TESTING, "integration"),
        )
    )
)

test_pytest.py

class TestPytest:
    def test_fti(self, get_fti):
        assert get_fti("Document") is not None

It works if I include portal as a parameter in test_fti. Even though we aren't using that directly, we need that fixture to run. I think it might be preferable to update the get_fti fixture as follows. Is there a better method?

@pytest.fixture()
def get_fti(portal):  # add `portal` here
    def get_fti(name: str) -> DexterityFTI:
        """Get the fti for a type by name."""
        return queryUtility(IDexterityFTI, name=name)

    return get_fti

@ewohnlich That is a good question. Normally, when I use get_fti, I also add portal in an auto include fixture (Example here).

Even though it would be easier to add portal in get_fti, I would say it is a bad idea if you want to use it in tests that use portal-like fixture with a distinct scope.
