pytest: force_terminal by global variable?

[nschloe]

In #1298, it is answered how the color/style codes can be preserved under pytest output. Anwer: Initialize the Console like

from rich.console import Console

console = Console(force_terminal=True)

I'm wondering if there's a way to achieve this without changing production code, e.g., setting an environment variable, or some other global thing that I could set?

FORCE_COLOR=1 should do it. See here for other env vars.
