Description

If I run

$ python -m pytest --hypothesis -r s

then at the end I get the following description of skipped tests:

SKIP [12] /home/antoine/arrow/python/pyarrow/tests/conftest.py:165: --hypothesis NOT enabled

So I try with --hypothesis and it fails with the following message:

$ python -m pytest --hypothesis -r s
usage: pytest.py [options] [file_or_dir] [file_or_dir] [...]
pytest.py: error: ambiguous option: --hypothesis could match --hypothesis-profile, --hypothesis-verbosity, --hypothesis-show-statistics, --hypothesis-seed
