"Additional arguments can't be parsed. " When passing in customized py.test argument in Run/Debug Configuration
Answered
PyCharm Community Edition 2017.1.1
Build #PC-171.4163.6, built on April 11, 2017

Seems like upgrading pycharm to latest version has restricted usage of customized argument to py.test framework.
When I added customized arguments to "Additional Arguments" tab in Run/Debug Configuration for py.test, pycharm refused to run it.
The full error message is :
"Error running TestName: Additional arguments can't be parsed. Please check they are valid: -s --override=ReplacedPlaceHolder"
Is there any way to get this to work?
Thanks,

Hello.
This issue is fixed in 2017.1.2 RC which should be available on this week. For business-critical situations you may contact our support ("pycharm-support@jetbrains.com") for instructions on how to enable old test runners, but it is better to wait for 2017.1.2.
Thanks for such fast response and fix. Your support is awesome!
