fixture argument params is not working

[devrimcavusoglu]

I intended to use the params argument of fixtures, when I created my fixture I get an error.

import pytest

valid_list = ["a", "b", "c", "d"]

@pytest.fixture(scope="module", params=[("a","b"), ("c", "d")])
def my_fixture(input_params):
    x, y = input_params.param
    assert x in valid_list and y in valid_list

what I get is,

E       fixture 'input_params' not found
>       available fixtures: ...
>       use 'pytest --fixtures [testpath]' for help on them.

The thing is indeed input_param is not intended to be a fixture, it should be ("a","b") and ("c", "d") in two runs respectively.

as per documentation, the argument name is request, and request.param is where you find the data
