Disable autouse fixtures on specific pytest marks

You can also use the request object in your fixture to check the markers used on the test, and don’t do anything if a specific marker is set:

import pytest

@pytest.fixture(autouse=True)
def autofixt(request):
    if 'noautofixt' in request.keywords:
        return
    print("patching stuff")

def test1():
    pass

@pytest.mark.noautofixt
def test2():
    pass

Output with -vs:

x.py::test1 patching stuff
PASSED
x.py::test2 PASSED
