SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill guides comprehensive Python testing strategies, covering pytest basics, fixtures, mocking, parameterization, async testing, and test-driven development practices.

Core Features & Use Cases

Basic pytest Patterns: Write clean unit tests with AAA structure and clear assertions.
Fixtures for Setup/Teardown: Reuse test setup and teardown logic across tests.
Parameterization: Run tests with multiple inputs to broaden coverage.
Mocking & Isolation: Mock external dependencies to isolate behavior.
Advanced Testing: Async testing, property-based testing, and integration testing patterns.

Quick Start

Create simple tests (e.g., test_example.py) and run with:

pytest test_example.py
