async def functions are not natively supported. You need to install a suitable plugin for your async framework, for example: - anyio - pytest-asyncio - pytest-tornasync - pytest-trio - pytest-twisted

Root Cause
pytest does not natively run async test functions. Without pytest-asyncio (or another async plugin) and the correct asyncio_mode configuration, async tests are skipped/failed with this message.
generic中文
pytest 不原生支持运行 async 测试函数。未安装 pytest-asyncio(或其他异步插件)且未配置 asyncio_mode 时,异步测试会报此错。
Workarounds
-
95% success
pip install pytest-asyncio, then add to pyproject.toml or pytest.ini: [tool.pytest.ini_options] asyncio_mode = "auto" and mark tests with @pytest.mark.asyncio (or rely on auto mode).
-
85% success
Alternatively use anyio: `pip install anyio` and decorate with `@pytest.mark.anyio`.
Dead Ends
Common approaches that don't work:
-
70% fail
Runs at import time, not collection time, and breaks fixtures/event loop reuse.
-
75% fail
The marker is unknown without the plugin; test still fails with the same message.
