Having a problem getting my pytests to run successfully after push to GitHub

[writeson]

I have a FastAPI application that's using httpx, and I'm having trouble getting the pytests to run successfully in the GitHub environment when I push the code. The tests run fine when run in a local Docker container.

Here's my Dockerfile

FROM python:3.9.7-slim
WORKDIR /app/
ENV PYTHONPATH "${PYTHONPATH}:/"
COPY requirements.txt .
RUN pip install -r requirements.txt
CMD ["uvicorn", "main:app", "--reload", "--host", "0.0.0.0"]

And here's the requirements.txt file it uses to get the modules the application needs:

fastapi==0.82.0
uvicorn==0.18.3
pydantic==1.10.2
pylint==2.15.2
pytest==7.1.3
boto3==1.24.68
python-dotenv==0.21.0
pytest-mock==3.8.2
sseclient==0.0.27
pytest-asyncio==0.19.0
wheel==0.37.1
httpx==0.23.0
pytest-httpx==0.21.0
pytest-trio==0.7.0

Here's the .github/workflows/unit-tests.yml file that runs the tests in the GitHub environment:

And here's part of the errors generated when run in the GitHub environment:

My apologies if this isn't the right forum to be asking this, but I'm at my wits end trying to resolve this. Any ideas, pointers or suggestions are welcome.

TypeError: Invalid type for url. Expected str or httpx.URL, got <class 'NoneType'>: None

The error is indicating that you've passed None instead of a valid argument to URL()...

It looks like that must be originating here...

app/helpers/cognito_helper.py:59: in call_cognito
    request = httpx.Request("GET", url=url, json=body)

Can't really help beyond that. Looks like httpx raising a valid error when passed an incorrect argument. (None for the url)
