tests.Dockerfile
my tests.Dockerfile looks as following.

RUN ["pytest"]
and docker-compose.yml as following.

ERROR: Service 'tests' failed to build : Build failed
>Solution :
If I use your tests.Dockerfile exactly as written, the following docker-compose.yaml:
version: "3"
services:
tests:
build:
context: .
dockerfile: tests.Dockerfile
And the following test_some_pytest.py:
def test_something():
assert True
It successfully runs pytest when I run docker-compose build:
$ docker-compose build
