AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'find_element'

Question

I am facing some issue in my test script. What am I doing wrong here? Before that just an overview beforehand, its website testing in python and selenium using pytest. My selenium is v4.18.1 and Chrome v122.0.6261.112

conftest.py

Test_Regis.py:

I got this attribute error. But same I have written in very basic way. I have also written very basic of the same automation script. Below is same code as above.

This works fine. I do not understand what is wrong with the above code.

You need to return the driver created in setup. I would also rename setup to driver:

# conftest.py
import pytest
from selenium import webdriver

@pytest.fixture
def driver():
    chrome_driver = webdriver.Chrome()
    chrome_driver.maximize_window()
    chrome_driver.get("...")
    return chrome_driver

# test_it.py
class TestRegistration:
    def test_reg001(self, driver):
        # Do something with driver
        pass

The key here is to return the driver you created.
