pytest-steps is not compatible with async functions (pytest.mark.asyncio) about python-pytest-steps HOT 4 OPEN

Thanks for reaching out ! Any feedback is always great

I have not tested this plugin with async functions. However I do not see any reason why this would not be compliant, as long as the test functions are normal functions (or generators if you use the new syntax with yield statements, ).

Let me know if it does not work for you - in that case please send a "minimum reproducible example" of the errors you are facing.

Closing this issue as it seems solved. Please reopen if this is not the case.

There is no way to run async functions in sync function. As I see your decorators type on default is sync. I guess it's not compatible at all :c

good point @VernadskyDanya : I guess that pytest.mark.asyncio makes pytest run this async directly in the event loop, so the pytest-steps decorator which creates a sync function wrapper, is not compliant. Thanks for the precision!
