Preventing pytest from creating .cache directories in Pycharm

Sets a directory where stores content of cache plugin. Default directory is .cache which is created in rootdir. Directory may be relative or absolute path. If setting relative path, then directory is created relative to rootdir.

Here is a sample PyCharm run configuration with the no:cacheprovider:
