Expected behaviour

No error

Actual behaviour

IMPORTANT: This behavior is intermittent and I’m unable to reliably reproduce it, but it does happen frequent enough that it should come up in testing.

Receiving error Error: TypeError: message must be set in Python Test Log when debugging tests (pytest) with accompanying error toast (see image)

Also occasionally receiving error:

Error: Error: Illegal value for `line`

Steps to reproduce:

[NOTE: Self-contained, minimal reproducing code samples are extremely helpful and will expedite addressing your issue]

1. Create the following files

main.py

def main():
    raise Exception("Unhandled Exception")

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

main_test.py

from main import main

def test_main():
    main()
    assert True

1. Discover tests
2. Debug test (individually or all seems to have no impact)

Hi @chs-sapentintia, if you havne’t done so yet please upvote (👍) the initial post to help us prioritize it. Thanks!

This should be fixed in the insiders version of the Python extension (View > Command Palette… and run “Python: Switch to Insiders Weekly Channel” command). Please do try it out, we will release this fix soon!
