Enable Pytest Rewrite to Users

[eleanorjboyd]

Enable the pytest rewrite code and disable the old pytest coding method. This may also include doing the same for unittests but for reduced load these two might need to be at separate times. Dependencies between the two workflows should be analyzed to determine a best release schedule.

is there a way for users to enable this themselves if the experiment isn't enabled for them? i wrote a pytest hook that relies on the new test adapter (pytest-dev/pytest-xdist#853 (comment)) and it would be nice if i could set something in .vscode/settings.json to enable it for everyone in my team.

edit: i just found python.experiments.optInto, but it looks like that can only be configured on the user's settings.json and not the workspace one

@DetachHead, the experiment should be enabled for all users by default- do you have a setting that might turn on this default behavior?

[DetachHead]

looks like it was because i have "telemetry.telemetryLevel" set to "off"

@eleanorjboyd do experiments work differently on the insiders version of vscode? the pythonTestAdapter experiment seems to be disabled by default, even though i have telemetry.telemetryLevel set to all

[eleanorjboyd]

It should be enabled for everyone on both stable and insiders. To confirm both your user and workspace settings do not reference anything about experiments?

[DetachHead]

yep, no experiments or telemetry settings have been changed from the defaults. same thing happens on a colleague's PC with a fresh install. i even deleted everything in both my user and workspace settings.json files just to be sure

@luabud could you take a look at this?
