Description:

When using an asyncio fixture with pytest, the teardown fixture is not executing properly. The teardown fixture is meant to run after test_foo and print "teardown", then await for one second before finishing. However, when the yield statement is included in the fixture, nothing gets printed to the console. If the yield statement is removed, nothing still gets printed but I get a warning: "RuntimeWarning: coroutine 'teardown' was never awaited". I don't understand this behaviour, can someone help me understand?

Steps to reproduce:

# test_foo.py

import pytest
import asyncio


@pytest.fixture(scope="function", autouse=True)
@pytest.mark.asyncio
async def teardown():
    yield
    print("teardown")
    await asyncio.sleep(1)


def test_foo():
    assert True

run pytest test_foo.py -s

Expected result:

The teardown fixture should run after the test function, print "teardown", and await for one second before finishing.

Actual result:

If the yield statement is included, "teardown" does not get printed.
If the yield statement is removed, "teardown" does still not get print but I get a warning:
"RuntimeWarning: coroutine 'teardown' was never awaited".

Python version: 3.11.0

This issue has to go to pytest-asyncio

Pytest itself does not support async fixtures

Okay!
