Does this skill provide pytest fixtures?

Yes, it includes standard patterns for setting up WorkflowEnvironment and ActivityEnvironment as pytest fixtures for clean, reusable test suites.

What is replay testing in this context?

Replay testing validates that your workflow code remains deterministic by re-running it against saved execution histories, preventing deployment of incompatible changes.

Can I use this for local development?

Yes, the skill includes guidance for setting up a local Temporal server using Docker Compose and configuring coverage tools for your development environment.

How does time-skipping help with Temporal testing?

Time-skipping allows you to test workflows that normally take days or months in just seconds by advancing the virtual clock within the WorkflowEnvironment.
