Test discovery fails on imports for unittest tests in conda environment

[dhowe]

Type: Bug

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open vscode from a conda environment with a unittest test file that has imports
2. Notice that tests run from the terminal, as well as via the python-run menu
3. Notice that test discovery fails (error msg in output section below) when trying to resolve imports in the conda env

Diagnostic data

• Python version (& distribution if applicable, e.g. Anaconda): 3.10.8
• Type of virtual environment used (e.g. conda, venv, virtualenv, etc.): Conda
• Value of the python.languageServer setting: Default

Hello! Could you send all the environment variables that are in your environment? You can just do env or printenv from the command line. Thanks!

[dhowe]

I'd rather not do that for the obvious reasons. But here are the python-related items (output from within the conda env 'beetle'):

CONDA_EXE=/usr/local/anaconda3/bin/conda
CONDA_PREFIX=/usr/local/anaconda3/envs/beetle
CONDA_PROMPT_MODIFIER=(beetle) 
_CE_CONDA=
CONDA_SHLVL=2
CONDA_PYTHON_EXE=/usr/local/anaconda3/bin/python
CONDA_DEFAULT_ENV=beetle
CONDA_PREFIX_1=/usr/local/anaconda3
PATH=/usr/local/anaconda3/envs/beetle/bin:/usr/local/anaconda3/condabin:/usr/local/bin/python3.11:...

[karthiknadig]

Can you try this in the terminal?

conda run -n beetle --no-capture-output python -c "import openai"

I am suspecting something is going wrong with using conda run
