Unrecognized argument running pytest with plugin from executable file

[sush1q]

I have script like this to run my tests:

import pytest
import src
import ioctl_module
import allure
import allure_pytest

pytest.main(["-s", src.__path__[0], "--alluredir=./allure_results"])

While I am running it with IDE Debugger it perfectly works and generate allure-report
But, when I pack this script with PyInstaller I have this problem while running it:

ERROR: usage: run_tests [options] [file_or_dir] [file_or_dir] [...]
run_tests: error: unrecognized arguments: --alluredir=./allure_results
  inifile: None
  rootdir: /home/administrator/all_com

I used pyinstaller debugger with import info, there I saw that allure was imported
used pyinstaller command:

pyinstaller run_tests.py --noconfirm --onedir --name run_tests --add-data src --collect-submodules allure-pytest --collect-submodules allure -d imports

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. pack script by pyinstaller
2. run packed script

Expected behavior
I wanted to generate allure-report after runned tests packed with executable file

Hi @sush1q,

Try this:

...
import allure_pytest.plugin

pytest.main(["-s", src.__path__[0], "--alluredir=./allure_results"], plugins=[allure_pytest.plugin])

Explanation: pytest uses setuptools entry points to register plugins, and that mechanism is not supported by PyInstaller (not sure if the support has been added/is working in the latest versions).
