Test-driven development in Python starts by designing test cases, writing a failing test with pytest, implementing minimal passing code, and then refactoring while verifying execution and coverage.

The Red-Green-Refactor cycle is a test-driven development process where you write a failing test, implement minimal code to pass it, and then refactor. This improves code quality by ensuring robustness from the start.

Yes, pytest is required as the core dependency to verify test execution and check coverage during the Red-Green-Refactor cycle of the test-driven development workflow.

Yes, test-driven development can be used for a user authentication module by guiding the creation of tests for login, logout, and password reset functionalities before writing the core implementation code.

The best way to design test scenarios is to follow the guided test case design steps, which assist in defining comprehensive test scenarios before you write the minimal passing implementation code.

You should not use test-driven development for refactoring when a feature lacks clear test scenarios or when pytest cannot be configured, as the methodology strictly relies on test execution and coverage verification.
