Description

Could,

Could you add more comments to the code and Readme files so that we can better understand the type of objects and the attributes of the following parameters :

  • report
  • prefix
  • summary
  • postfix
  • cells
  • data

I found them in the following hookers:

  • def pytest_html_report_title(report):
  • def pytest_html_results_summary(prefix, summary, postfix):
  • def pytest_html_results_table_header(cells):
  • def pytest_html_results_table_row(report, cells):
  • def pytest_html_results_table_html(report, data):

By reading the source code, I have no idea what kind of attributes of methods each parameter has.

Thank you

Locate the hook definitions and the README sections for pytest_html_report_title, pytest_html_results_summary, pytest_html_results_table_header, pytest_html_results_table_row, and pytest_html_results_table_html. Read how report, prefix, summary, postfix, cells, and data are used, then document their object types and relevant attributes in the source comments and README; done means each listed argument is understandable to hook users.
