What testing framework does this skill focus on?

This skill primarily focuses on pytest, the industry standard for Python testing, along with the unittest.mock library for dependency isolation.

Can this skill help with testing asynchronous code?

Yes, it includes specific patterns for testing async functions and concurrent operations using pytest-asyncio and async fixtures.

How does it handle database and environment setup?

The skill provides patterns for using pytest fixtures to manage database connections and the monkeypatch utility to safely mock environment variables.

What is the AAA pattern mentioned in the skill?

AAA stands for Arrange, Act, and Assert. It is a pattern that organizes tests into three distinct steps to improve readability and maintainability.
