I don’t know so I dug around a little, it seems that deprecation was introduced in db6f347db6d3f2db5aa2cf2d27630db5ab99d589 with the introduction of pytest_load_initial_conftests, so I would recommend using that instead.

Unfortunately pytest_load_initial_conftests doesn’t work from inside conftest.py, so it’s not an exact replacement.
