Q:

vscode errors with tests

This week I noticed a problem when running tests in vs code.
Tests work correctly when run from the command-line, but VSCode itself at startup produces this error:

Cannot read property '$' of undefined

Has anyone else encountered this problem?
Changing the version of the Python extension does not help

A:

Problem in package version. Repaired so pip install pytest==5.0.1
I don’t know what this may be connected with, but the problem in vs code disappeared
