Support pytest verbs test-system (was: Unable to rollback transactions using pytest and in_transaction context manager)

Describe the bug I wrote a pytest fixture that should be automatically run for each test. This fixture starts a new transaction using the in_transaction context manager, yields, and then tries to roll back. But the fixture breaks when it tries to roll back with an error that the token was created in a different context like this:

ValueError: <Token var=<ContextVar name='default' default=<tortoise.backends.asyncpg.client.AsyncpgDBClient object at 0x7f8c294a6670> at 0x7f8c294b2810> at 0x7f8c285a7140> was created in a different Context

To Reproduce

1. Install pytest, pytest-asyncio, tortoise-orm and asyncpg.
2. Start the PostgreSQL server and create a new table with the contents:

CREATE TABLE mymodelfortest (
	id VARCHAR(255) PRIMARY KEY,
	name TEXT DEFAULT 'text'
);

1. Create a new test_tortoise.py test file:

import contextlib

import pytest
from tortoise import Tortoise, fields, models
from tortoise.transactions import in_transaction


class MyModelForTest(models.Model):
    id = fields.CharField(pk=True, max_length=255)
    name = fields.TextField(default="text")


@pytest.fixture(autouse=True)
async def init_db():
    await Tortoise.init(
        db_url="postgres://postgres:postgres@localhost:5432/postgres",
        modules={"models": ["test_tortoise"]},
    )
    yield
    await Tortoise.close_connections()


@pytest.fixture(autouse=True)
async def db_transaction(init_db):
    with contextlib.suppress(RuntimeError):
        async with in_transaction():
            yield
            raise RuntimeError


@pytest.mark.asyncio
async def test_a():
    await MyModelForTest.create(id="test")
    assert (await MyModelForTest.all()) == [MyModelForTest(id="test")]


@pytest.mark.asyncio
async def test_b():
    assert (await MyModelForTest.all()) == []

1. Run pytest and get a message about tests teardown errors and some failed tests:

Expected behavior Transactions should be able to roll back after the test is completed and the fixture tries to teardown, and all tests must pass.

I previously used tortoise-orm 0.14.1 and solved this issue using this fixture:

@pytest.fixture(autouse=True)
async def db_transaction():
    transaction = await start_transaction()
    yield
    await transaction.rollback()

But since start_transaction is deprecated, so I tried changing it for the in_transaction context manager and ran into this problem.

Ok, I get that. Right now I fixed it similar to how it was done in the helpers from tortoise.contrib.test. I just handle database schema migrations(using alembic) in a separate fixture without transactions. But a little later I would like to try to add support for pytest fixtures, if someone else does not.

We depend on the UnitTest infrastructure to manage DB states during testing. The pytest verbs are a totally different system unfortunately.

You can use pytest, and write tests like so: https://tortoise-orm.readthedocs.io/en/latest/contrib/unittest.html

Or you could consider adding support for pytest verbs as a PR?
