Pytest is not detected by sage

[Adarsh Kishore]

Hi everyone,

I am running Sage v 9.6.beta4 on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS system. When I run doctests on it, it skips the doctests involving pytest, saying that

```

Pytest is not installed, skip checking tests that rely on it.

```

I installed pytest using

```

pip install -U pytest

```

and then

```

sudo pip install -U pytest

```

but it still does not detect pytest, as can be seen in screenshot. I also tried rebuilding sage using

```

make build

```

from SAGE_ROOT, but it does not work. I looked up these resources from Google and StackOverFlow but none of them worked out for me. I would appreciate if someone can help me in resolving this issue.

you need Sage's pytest package, which can be installed by doing e.g. 

    make pytest

The way they want to run pytest, I would suggest to try
cd src
pytest -v
first. The configuration files for pytest are in there and it should be the reported rootdir. Not SAGE_ROOT.

I looked it up on the Sage developer documentation at 

https://doc.sagemath.org/html/en/developer/tools.html

The relevant command to be run is 

```

./sage -i pytest

```

from SAGE_ROOT. Running this, pytest works fine now.

Thanks, everyone for the help.

./sage -i <package>

is at the moment equivalent to 

make <package>

- but we should deprecate it.
