As we have decorated our function with pytest fixture, pytest fixture does not allow you to call the function directly to get the data. Instead, you have to request for the same. So how do we get the fixture, I mean our data inside of our test function? Well, to do that, you can simply request for it. That is, when you define our test function, inside of the arguments, you can write something light report json now pytest when it will go ahead and run our test function it will find this report json argument then it will go ahead and find a fixture that matches the name and it finds our report json fixture then it goes ahead and runs the same and provides the return value as an argument to our test function…
