The only way to declare that a fixture requires a database is the db fixture. However, since #1186 this will only pull in the default database. As far as I can see, there is currently no way to specify a different database.

Prior to #1186, the db fixture pulled in all databases.

Please https://pytest-django.readthedocs.io/en/latest/database.html#tests-requiring-multiple-databases. Does that work?

@pytest.mark.django_db cannot be used for fixtures, so it does not apply here. The only way to declare that a fixture requires a database is the db fixture, and that does not take any parameters.
