Currently neither pytest --cov nor coverage run -m pytest come without drawbacks:

  • pytest --cov only starts collecting coverage after plugins have been loaded, so it doesn’t correctly collect coverage in some situations. coverage run is just more reliable.
  • But covtest run doesn’t have pytest’s behavior of not adding the working directory to sys.path and can’t be made to do that: coverage run breaks PYTHONSAFEPATH nedbat/coveragepy#1696

I think due to our use of the src layout, the latter is the better tradeoff
