[FYI] Pytest have "weak recommendation" on addopts to be a string

[abravalheri]

As per the discussion in pytest-dev/pytest#12228, it seems that pytest recommends the addopts setting to be a string (although that is pretty much a temporary hack due to transitory nature of tool.pytest.ini_options).

cookie/docs/pages/guides/pytest.md

Line 76 in fea6e2f

addopts = ["-ra", "--showlocals", "--strict-markers", "--strict-config"]

I don't gather that from the discussion. The person who suggested it be a string also suggested it not be in pyproject.toml. Since this isn't supported:

[tool.pytest.ini_options]
addopts = """
    # show 10 slowest invocations:
    --durations=10

    # a bit of verbosity doesn't hurt:
    -v
"""

but this is:

[tool.pytest.ini_options]
addopts = [
    # show 10 slowest invocations:
    "--durations=10",

    # a bit of verbosity doesn't hurt:
    "-v",
]

I'd say it's significantly better to have it as a list of strings.

transitory nature

It's been several years now.

I am fine to fix the repo-review check to support a string here, though.
