I've run into an issue with pytest_assertrepr_compare - I want the hook to apply to only a subset of tests (tests/unit/**), so I defined tests/unit/conftest.py and defined my pytest_assertrepr_compare there, but still tests under tests/other/** get that behavior (when I run py.test on tests/).

Is there a way to cause the hook to be loaded only for tests/unit/** (or some other subset of tests)? Alternatively, is there a way to detect from within the pytest_assertrepr_compare function which module/function is under test and select that way?

In principle it should be possible to have a conftest pytest_assertrepr_compare apply only to a subdirectory. The basic mechanism exists but this particular hook is implemented in a special way and thus it requires some thinking/hacking i am afraid. Could you open an issue about this? thanks, holger

Thanks,

Jason
