What issue are you seeing?
I am doing some refactoring in a Python/FastAPI project. In some cases, when I ask Codex to write test cases for me, it hangs when it tries to run pytest to execute the whole test suite (as shown in the image).
The test suite is small (around 17 short tests), but the execution gets stuck and never completes.
