Reuse across invocations

When using pytest-watch, is there a way for the spark session/context to be reused across test runs?

As far as I can see from quick look into pytest-watch - there is no easy way to do it out of the box because pytest-watch starts new process (pytest) when it detects changes in your source files.

Can you elaborate a bit what problem are you trying to solve by reusing session/context across test runs?

Just trying to save time. Rebooting the session/context on every iteration is ~5 seconds of waiting each time that could be eliminated if there was a way to keep it from being garbage collected after each run.

ok, fair enough
I will think about it, but for now I don't see any easy solution :(
