the latest recipe that shows this is: http://alembic.readthedocs.org/en/latest/cookbook.html#sharing-a-connection-with-a-series-of-migration-commands-and-environments
that includes sharing the connection and running command.upgrade. cursors getting stuck usually happens when tables are being dropped, because they are locked. this is more unusual on the setup, but you’d need to see if the cursor is attempting to execute a statement against a resource that is locked by another connection (often a previous test that didn’t tear down).
