Hey Kedro wizards! When I create a kedro session in a unit test and run a pipeline, I notice that a file 
stats.json
is emitted into the working directory. What is this file? and is there a way I can disable this behaviour?

hi ...u get this file if you have kedro-viz installed, and it is created by a kedro-viz hook. It's used in your kedro-viz visualisation to give you stats on different datasets. At the moment; the only way you can not generate it is by uninstalling 
kedro-viz
... in future, we will have this file in 
.viz
folder
https://docs.kedro.org/en/stable/hooks/introduction.html#disable-auto-registered-plugins-hooks - you could also add 
kedro-viz
to this in settings.py, and that would probably not generate this file

I am pretty sure this same question has been raised a few months ago. I raised the ticket to move it to a 
.viz
folder and this has already been discussed.
I am struggling to find the github issue though, give me a few minute.
@Juan Luis I struggled to search older conversation, any chance that you remember which Github issue it is?
It has been marked as 
high
priority for a while, maybe we can put it in the next sprint or at least by next release? @Juan Luis

Happy to include it in the next sprint @Nok Lam Chan @Ben Horsburgh 💯

Should we move it to kedro-viz sprint? because I realised it's in framework sprint?

In terms of the code change, it should happened in 
kedro-starters
, it's a viz feature though. I think it's fine to put it in viz sprint if you are happy to take it.

thank you! For now I've added a 
.gitignore
to at least keep repo clean
