pytest-patterns

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps ensure tests follow established pytest patterns and best practices, reducing flaky tests and simplifying maintenance.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Basic Test Pattern: Structure tests with Arrange/Act/Assert and clear naming.
• Async Test Pattern: Provide patterns for testing async code with pytest.mark.asyncio.
• Fixtures: Demonstrates use and scope of fixtures (function, session, module) and teardown.
• Parametrize for Multiple Test Cases: Run multiple inputs against a single test function.
• Mocking: Use unittest.mock to mock dependencies within tests.

Quick Start

Apply pytest-patterns to your test file (e.g., test_api.py) to ensure fixtures, parametrize, and mocks follow best practices.
