pytest auto-config not correctly created
When I click on the "Run Test" icon on the left side, I expect a config to be created for running that specific test case only. However, the whole file is run. Also, that config is pointing to the wrong file.
For example, when I click on the "Run Test" icon of the highlighted test:
I expect a config that only runs the test "test_jp_story_speaker_init_without_conversation" to be created. However, a config that points to the other file sharing the same name is rather created, according to the args and the results shown.

Hello,
what version of PyCharm you are running? Please make sure it is up-to-date.
Please disable all custom plugins, go to **File | Settings | Plugins** click the gear icon and choose "Disable all downloaded plugins", to avoid third-party affection.
Second, is is reproducible with a new project and a simple example? If not, please submit an issue at

with a simplified project example and steps to reproduce attached.
Hi Belianskaya,
Thanks for the response in advance. I created a sandbox project and successfully re-created the bug. Here's the steps:
1. Create a project and install pytest
2. Edit config template of "Python tests > Autodetect". Set "Working directory" to project root.
3. Create files with the structure provided below:
4. Create tests with the same name with one passing and one failing, I created them like this:
5. Use "Run tests" for both tests. Both runs will fail while one should pass. You'll see that it's running the same test from the result screen.
The reason I manually set the working directory to my project root is that my pytest fixture is loading files relative to the project root. If I didn't set that, the test won't be able to start because it can't load the files. It's also kinda counter-intuitive that a new testing config is not created/run under the project root directory IMO.
Hello, thank you for the steps I have reproduced the problem and reported as a bug https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/PY-50777 , please follow it for updates.
I apologize for the inconvenience.
Hello,
Could you please try marking the Project Root as Test Sources (right click -> "mark as.." ) instead of editing the Run Configuration template? Will it work for you?
