Pytest Exit Codes

I've built my pytest class in the following manner:

class Test_Exit_Code(object):
    
  def setup_class(cls):
      If 2==2:
         # stop execution of the test class


  def test_a(self):
     assert True==True

As you can see inside the setup_class method i've inserted an IF , what i want to achieve in the if section is that if a certain condition appears to be true instead of the comment i want to return exit code 5 , i.e. no tests were collected . so far i haven't found any way to do it.

You could try calling pytest.exit(). Also it seems you are missing the classmethod decorator

import pytest

class Test_Exit_Code:
    @classmethod
    def setup_class(cls):
        if 2==2:
            pytest.exit("test exit code setup failed", returncode=5)

    def test_this_wont_run(self):
        assert True

    def test_neither_does_this(self):
        assert False

Output:

>python -m pytest test.py
====================== test session starts ======================

===================== no tests ran in 0.25s ===================== 
!!!!!! _pytest.outcomes.Exit: test exit code setup failed !!!!!!!
