title: What is a funcarg?
body: <p>I was reading about pytest module and come up to the term &quot;funcarg&quot;. I couldnt find any explanation for it. Found it in pytest doc page - <a href="https://docs.pytest.org/en/stable/funcarg_compare.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://docs.pytest.org/en/stable/funcarg_compare.html</a> . But initially found it in Python OOP book from Dusty Phillips:</p>
  <p>Fixtures can do a lot more than return basic variables. A  request  object can be passed into
  the fixture factory to provide extremely useful methods and attributes to modify the
  funcarg's behavior.</p>
  <p>Can someone provide some simple explanation?
  Thank you.</p>
