Is there a way to ignore test/conftest.py in py.test?

Question

Without moving any code around (I realise I could refactor but for various reasons that is inconvenient), is there a way to call py.test whilst ignoring conftest.py?

I'd thought:

py.test -p no:pytestconfig

might work, but it seems like it doesn't.

Answer 1

Use:

py.test --noconftest 

According to py.test --help:

--noconftest Don't load any conftest.py files.
