Description

When I execute this test function:

@pytest.mark.parametrize("login, password, description", [("aaa", "111", "hello")])
def test_1(login, password, description):
    pass

The pytest-html report displays this test name:
test/param_module_test.py::test_1[aaa-111-hello]

image

Wouldn't be better to display this?
test/param_module_test.py::test_1(aaa, 111, hello)
