The difference between a fixture and an exit in a drink

Question

I go through pytest fixtures and the following looks pretty similar, recent works are very similar.

Yes, readability is better in yield_fixure , but someone can tell me exactly what the difference is.

which should i use in the cases mentioned below?

@pytest.fixture()
def open_browser(request):
    print("Browser opened")

    def close_browser():
        print("browser closed")

    request.addfinalizer(close_browser)

    return "browser object"

@pytest.yield_fixture()
def open_browser():
    print("Browser opened")
    yield "browser object"
    print("browser closed")


def test_google_search(open_browser):
    print(open_browser)
    print("test_google_search")

Answer 1

The only difference in readability. I think (although I'm not 100% sure) the basic behavior is identical (i.e., cleaning after the statement yieldis done as a finalizer). I always prefer to use cleaning tools, as this is more readable.
