INTERNALERROR> IndexError: list index out of range #155

I'm not sure if this is a pytest-bdd or a pytest core bug - but I've not seen it outside of pytest-bdd, so I'm reporting it here. Please let me know if I'm wrong! 😄

I found various ways to trigger this exception - for example when using an undefined fixture in a bdd test.

feat.feature:

Feature: feat

    Scenario: scen
        Given foo
        When bar
        Then baz

test_foo.py:

import pytest_bdd as bdd


@bdd.given('foo')
def foo(blah):  # using blah fixture which doesn't exist
    pass


@bdd.when('bar')
def bar():
    pass


@bdd.then('baz')
def baz():
    pass


bdd.scenarios('feat.feature')

gives me:

I also see this with Python 3.4 and pytest 2.7.

I can also reproduce it by decorating a fixture with @bdd.given and @bdd.when - same feature file as above, with this test_foo.py:

import pytest_bdd as bdd


@bdd.given('foo')
@bdd.when('bar')
def foobar():
    pass


@bdd.then('baz')
def baz():
    pass


bdd.scenarios('feat.feature')

I've tried the fix in pytest-dev/pytest#1003 and that seems to work better:

I don't see why the second thing (decorating with @when and @then) happens though.

This bug seems to come up whenever there's an error during collection. py.test tries to find the location of the test function which has an error using insepect.getsourcelines, which fails in this case because the scenarios function creates the test functions with an autogenerated line number (40 in the example you pasted) which doesn't actually exist in the file. I think it would be best if the line number for the generated function was set to be the same line as the call to scenarios(), that way the output is actually helpful

rygwdn · 2016-05-31T16:39:47Z

The original issue should be fixed in pytest 1.9 via pytest-dev/pytest#1414, but this issue still crops us for us because model_mommy also uses inspect to look at the stack, which raises exceptions due to the modification of co_firstlineno to a line which is not in the source file.

We're currently working around this by patching the inspect module during tests 😲 :

# in conftest.py
import inspect
from functools import wraps
if not hasattr(inspect, '_orig_findsource'):
    @wraps(inspect.findsource)
    def findsource(*args, **kwargs):
        try:
            return inspect._orig_findsource(*args, **kwargs)
        except IndexError:
            raise IOError("Invalid line")
    inspect._orig_findsource = inspect.findsource
    inspect.findsource = findsource

It would be nice to change pytest-bdd so that it doesn't need to modify the line numbers to avoid more problems like this.

2021 still experiencing this.

The-Compiler · 2021-06-29T11:00:41Z

@rygwdn @antonalechnovic Do you have a reproducer for this? Like mentioned, I can't reproduce this with my original example since a long time.

The error is thrown when using a decorator in the form of

@module.newrelic_wrapper
def lambda_handler(event, context=None):
    ...

where the module is the name of the module containing the decorator's definition.
