根因分析

`capsys.readouterr()` 返回空，因为被测代码使用了 `print(..., flush=False)` 且缓冲区尚未刷新，或者它写入的是 `sys.__stdout__` 而不是 `sys.stdout`。

English

`capsys.readouterr()` returns empty because the code under test uses `print(..., flush=False)` and the buffer has not been flushed, or it writes to `sys.__stdout__` instead of `sys.stdout`.

generic

解决方案

  1. 95% 成功率 
    Force flush in the code under test or use print(..., flush=True):

print('hello', flush=True)
  2. 90% 成功率 
    Use capfd and ensure the code writes to sys.stdout:

def test_out(capfd):
    my_func()
    out, err = capfd.readouterr()
    assert out == 'hello\n'

无效尝试

常见但无效的做法:

  1. 80% 失败

    Flushing is not time-based; the buffer may still be unflushed and the test is now flaky.

  2. 60% 失败

    capfd captures file descriptors; if the code uses sys.__stdout__ directly it still bypasses both.
