-----------------------------------

             Summary: [Python][Doc] Documentation for Test Groups out of sync
                 Key: ARROW-18066
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-18066
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Python
    Affects Versions: 10.0.0
            Reporter: Bryce Mecum


In the Python documentation for [Test 
Groups|https://arrow.apache.org/docs/dev/developers/python.html#test-groups] 
it's stated:
{quote}We have many tests that are grouped together using pytest marks. Some of 
these are disabled by default. To enable a test group, pass --$GROUP_NAME, e.g. 
--parquet. [continues]
{quote}
However, I get:

{{$ pytest --parquet # from arrow/python dir}}
{{ERROR: usage: pytest [options] [file_or_dir] [file_or_dir] [...]}}
{{pytest: error: unrecognized arguments: --parquet}}

 

Am I interpreting the docs wrong or has something changed since writing the 
docs?

 

Related: `pytest --markers` only reports the full list of pytest Marks when I'm 
in the `arrow/python/pyarrow` directory but not `arrow/python`. When I'm in the 
`arrow/python/pyarrow` subdirectory, marks work as expected (ie `pytest -m 
parquet works`).
