Description

See #1370 (comment)

Aha! Yes, that solved this. I also had to update pytest and, along with that, move the tests folder out into the rootdir of the repo, from tap-postgres/tap-postgres/tests/ -> tap-postgres/tests/. Thank you!!

Specifically, pytest >=4.0 requires you to do this if you're defining pytest_plugins https://docs.pytest.org/en/7.1.x/deprecations.html#pytest-plugins-in-non-top-level-conftest-files. AIUI.

Thanks for the additional context @qbatten!

I am seeing this issue with SDK version 0.22.1 and tests/ in the top level repository directory.

Tests directory: https://github.com/menzenski/tap-mongodb/blob/main/tests/core_test.py
Failing tests: https://github.com/menzenski/tap-mongodb/actions/runs/4635115290/jobs/8201896087#step:7:24

@menzenski were you able to fix this by adding a tests/conftest.py?
