pytest discovery never ends #24632
Description
Type: Bug
Behaviour
When I click on the the "test explorer" UI icon, in order to trigger discovery of python tests in my projects (I am using a multi-root workspace), it shows like it starting, but never ends.
No clear errors in the python / extension host logs.
Tried setting the logs for trace / debug, but did not find any error, or anything useful.
If I set:
"python.experiments.optOutFrom": ["pythonTestAdapter"]
The test discovery works, but the discovery fails over other issues, which normally never failed for me.
If I do not click on the "test explorer" icon, but simple save a python test file, the discovery for the project works, as I can see the green arrow for run / debug tests for the tests files in the project.
It started a few days ago, so I suspect this is related to one of the latest updated of the python extension.
Steps to reproduce:
- Click on the "test explorer" UI icon.
- pytest discovery never ends
