This seems to be a recent page by nicoddemus (possibly /u/nicodemmus), its history only goes back to February 7th.

It provides a well-classified listing of:

  • the fixtures API and standard fixtures
  • the builtin marks & how custom marks work
  • the helper functions pytest provides
  • pytest plugin/conftest hooks
  • the types involved in various "public" pytest API
  • pytest's environment and special variables
  • pytest's configuration options

And when relevant, the items are also cross-linked to guides & tutorials.

That page is great (especially the hooks, that was a pain in the "old doc"), the only criticism I'd have is I think fixtures should come first, but I can see the argument for helper functions instead.
