Hello Michael. I have a question for you. How can I add my own env name? So I can type the command in CLI --env=myownname and get it to work? I try to modify base_case file by it still gives me an error.

base_case.py

The error

Hi @SergeyGuschin, Based on your screenshots, it looks like you're mixing up valid pytest markers with valid envs. ValidEnvs is defined here: https://github.com/seleniumbase/SeleniumBase/blob/master/seleniumbase/fixtures/constants.py (That can only be changed from a cloned copy of SeleniumBase). Envs are picked from a list to prevent issues that could result when misspelling env names. You could use a different variable that isn't checked from a list, such as --data=DATA (self.data) or --var1=VAR1 (self.var1), and others:

--account=STR  (Set account. Access with "self.account" in tests.)
--data=STRING  (Extra test data. Access with "self.data" in tests.)
--var1=STRING  (Extra test data. Access with "self.var1" in tests.)
--var2=STRING  (Extra test data. Access with "self.var2" in tests.)
--var3=STRING  (Extra test data. Access with "self.var3" in tests.)
--variables=DICT  (Extra test data. Access with "self.variables".)

(That can be found in https://github.com/seleniumbase/SeleniumBase/blob/master/seleniumbase/plugins/pytest_plugin.py)

The --env=ENV one is special, and is checked for a match in the ValidEnvs list from fixtures/constants.py.

Thank a lot Michael, for your quick answer and tip. Now I've got it working as I want. I've changed the variables' names as I prefer.
