Warnings from conftest.py should show up in warning summary

See original GitHub issue

Right now if a conftest.py (or a module it imports) issues a warning, it does not show up in the warnings summary. Since conftest.py can be used to load plugins from other packages, it would be useful to be able to issue DeprecationWarnings and other warnings that are actually visible when pytest is run.

Exactly. The case you describe was my first point, which I don’t believe is doable right now without changing the pytest’s internals.

The second scenario describes when a test module test_foo.py emits a warning during import (or other module it imports emits it), then I believe it is possible to implement this in a custom plugin (conftest.py file).
