Suppressed Pylint Warnings

`unused-argument`

FP when a fixture is used in an applicable function but not referenced in the function body, e.g.

def test_something(conftest_fixture):  # <- Unused argument 'conftest_fixture'
    assert True

`unused-import`

FP when an imported fixture is used in an applicable function, e.g.

from fixture_collections import (
    imported_fixture,
)  # <- Unused imported_fixture imported from fixture_collections


def test_something(imported_fixture):
    ...

`redefined-outer-name`

FP when an imported/declared fixture is used in an applicable function, e.g.

from fixture_collections import imported_fixture


def test_something(
    imported_fixture,
):  # <- Redefining name 'imported_fixture' from outer scope (line 1)
    ...

`no-member`

FP when class attributes are defined in setup fixtures

import pytest


class TestClass(object):
    @staticmethod
    @pytest.fixture(scope="class", autouse=True)
    def setup_class(request):
        cls = request.cls
        cls.defined_in_setup_class = True

    def test_foo(self):
        assert (
            self.defined_in_setup_class
        )  # <- Instance of 'TestClass' has no 'defined_in_setup_class' member
