better document that -s (capture=no) doesn't work with xdist

[valignatev]

Hi, I want to print some info in stdout, so I use -s pytest option. It works fine unless I also use xdist with something like -n 2. In this case, logs got captured and I don't see anything.
Am I missing something?

-s doesn't work with xdist and gets disabled

Thanks for the answer, probably this should be somewhere in the docs.
For now, I use this workaround in my test:
assert False, 'Info I need'

What would be a good place to put it? Maybe the second entry in the FAQ section?

[RonnyPfannschmidt]

i think so

Also, I've noticed that -s is used in examples:

pytest-xdist/example/loadscope/tox.ini

Line 11 in 2c66187

py.test -s -v \

And in tests:

pytest-xdist/testing/acceptance_test.py

Line 406 in 11e3599

result = testdir.runpytest("-n1", "-s")

Should we remove it or it's somehow intended (then it looks misleading)?

Is there really no way to pass --capture=no to tests? It feels like a huge 👎 to me.
