When running tests with py.test there is a --pdb option to enter pdb on failure.
Is there a similar way to enter the debugger when running the same test from within PyCharm?

Debug mode Open a test case and switch to the Script view. Double-click on the leftmost side of the script editor to mark a breakpoint. A breakpoint is where Katalon Studio pauses the test execution for you to start debugging. Choose a browser for Debug from the main toolbar.
Unfortunately, debugger speed has some runtime limitations, which can't be easily fixed. If your code does some high performance computations, Debugger will be at least 3 times slower than usual Run. There is very low probability that this issue will be fixed soon.
The Debug tool window shows dedicated panes for frames, variables, and watches, and the console, where all the input and output information is displayed. If you want the console to be always visible, you can drag it to one of the PyCharm window's edges.
There is a py.test plugin, pytest-pycharm, that will halt the PyCharm debugger when a test emits an uncaught exception.

Follow the steps below to setup the correct run configuration:
Script: The path to your py.test executable (find by typing which py.test)
Script Parameters: This parameter is your test case followed by the --pdb option (ie /Users/Johan/projects/misc/testing.py --pdb)
After setting up the configuration, you can run the test case from within PyCharm. If a test case fails, your PyCharm run window will show the pdb prompt.
