I've docker-compose configuration for django and postgres, it works fine. However, when I'm trying to run pytest inside a django container it fails with an error:

This is actually true, there is no such file in django container, it's inside the psql container, but I don't understand what to do with this error. I checked that test database created.

I can fix this error if add this fixture in conftest.py

import pytest

@pytest.fixture()
def django_db_setup():
    pass

But using this approach it using my actual database, not the "test_*" one.

I don't think that this is docker-compose problem because other than tests it works fine.
