pytest does not respect ini values defined in conftest.py as validly defined

See original GitHub issue

Currently, any ini options added via pytest_addoption are flagged as unknown. They should be registered.

conftest.py:

gnikonorov:gleb_test [master] $ cat conftest.py
def pytest_addoption(parser):
    parser.addini("my_ini", "")
gnikonorov:gleb_test [master] $

pytest.ini:

gnikonorov:gleb_test [master] $ cat pytest.ini
[pytest]
my_ini=1
minversion = 3.0.0
gnikonorov:gleb_test [master] $

gnikonorov:gleb_test [master] $ pytest
WARNING: Unknown config ini key: my_ini
...
gnikonorov:gleb_test [master] $

@vitvakatu When you go to a PR (#7384) and click the commit ID at the bottom (“nicoddemus merged commit 4cc4ebf into pytest-dev:master”), you can see which version that commit is in:

So this has been in 6.0.0 already, and I can’t reproduce the issue with the reproducer in the original post. If you’re still running into problems, please open a separate issue.

No worries @vitvakatu!

Looks like @The-Compiler beat me to the answer. If you’re experiencing an issue it’s probably best to open a new issue like he mentioned.
