[TIP] Pylint error with pytest function/method lever marker - class level marker works

[Baiju M]

Hi,

When I use a function or method lever marker, pylint is throwing this error:

$ pylint test_hello.py
No config file found, using default configuration
************* Module test_hello
C:  1,0: Missing docstring
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/baiju/pylintve/bin/pylint", line 4, in <module>
    lint.Run(sys.argv[1:])

    decorator.expr.name == node.name):
AttributeError: 'Getattr' object has no attribute 'name'


This is the test_hello.py:

import pytest


@pytest.mark.simple
def test_simple_hello():
    import hello
    assert hello.say_hello() == "Hello"

I have kept the full traceback with all steps to reproduce this issue here:

If I use class level markers, pylint is not throwing any error.  So, I am
not
sure whether this is a pytest issue or pylint issue.
