[Bug]: Coverage report is empty

[bu3]

What happened?

When I run the command bazel coverage --action_env=VERBOSE_COVERAGE=true --combined_report=lcov -- any_test_target, I see empty dat files getting created for the _test.py files and bazel prints out the following log

INFO: From Coverage report generation:

eventually the combined report bazel-out/_coverage/_coverage_report.dat is empty too.

Version

Development (host) and target OS/architectures:

Output of bazel --version: bazel 8.0.0

Version of the Aspect rules, or other relevant rules from your WORKSPACE or MODULE.bazel file: aspect_rules_py 1.2.1

Language(s) and/or frameworks involved: python

How to reproduce

I made this repro repository to show my issue:
https://github.com/bu3/rules_python_repro/tree/main

at the root of the repo, you can find the script `run_code_coverage.sh` which runs the command I described above and check for the content of the combined report

Any other information?

No response

I noticed this mentioning py_pytest_main so I have added that too to my BUILD file along with the coverage and pytest dependencies.

Still the report results empty

NVM I ran gazelle after adding py_pytest_main to the BUILD file and now the report contains data
