>             Project: Apache Arrow
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Python

> In the Python documentation for [Test Groups|https://arrow.apache.org/docs/dev/developers/python.html#test-groups] it's stated:
> {quote}We have many tests that are grouped together using pytest marks. Some of these are disabled by default. To enable a test group, pass --$GROUP_NAME, e.g. --parquet. [continues]
> {quote}
> However, I get:
> {{$ pytest --parquet # from arrow/python dir}}
> {{ERROR: usage: pytest [options] [file_or_dir] [file_or_dir] [...]}}
> {{pytest: error: unrecognized arguments: --parquet}}
>  
> Am I interpreting the docs wrong or has something changed since writing the docs?
>  
> Related: `pytest --markers` only reports the full list of pytest Marks when I'm in the `arrow/python/pyarrow` directory but not `arrow/python`. When I'm in the `arrow/python/pyarrow` subdirectory, marks work as expected (ie `pytest -m parquet works`).
