[Python] Unittest's subTest doesn't work with Pytest, or am I crazy?

As I understand, pytest should provide parameter information withunittest.TestCase.subtest() if a test fails. So here is something that resembles my code:

class TestStuff(unittest.TestCase):

def test_foo(self):
for i in range(0, 100):
with self.subTest(msg = "seed", i = i):
np.random.seed(i)
n = np.random.randint(0, 30)
self.assertGreaterEqual(28, n)


This ofcourse fails, and prints out the following:

As you can see, there are no message about which seed (value of i) failed the test. I have read everywhere that Pytest is compatible with unittest, so I cant seem to see the problem here. Can someone explain this? Thx
