Pytest Patterns
If you're writing Python tests, this is your reference for doing pytest properly. It covers the essentials like fixtures with different scopes, parametrization for running the same test with different inputs, and mocking external dependencies. The fixture patterns are especially useful since that's where most people either build maintainable test suites or end up with a tangled mess. You'll find examples of fixture factories, autouse fixtures, and dependency chains. Also includes test organization strategies, coverage analysis, and CI/CD integration. Good for both setting up a new test suite and refactoring an existing one that's gotten out of hand.

Pytest Patterns - Comprehensive Testing Guide
A comprehensive skill for mastering Python testing with pytest. This skill covers everything from basic test structure to advanced patterns including fixtures, parametrization, mocking, test organization, coverage analysis, and CI/CD integration.
When to Use This Skill
Use this skill when:
- Writing tests for Python applications (web apps, APIs, CLI tools, libraries)
- Setting up test infrastructure for a new Python project
- Refactoring existing tests to be more maintainable and efficient
- Implementing test-driven development (TDD) workflows
- Creating fixture patterns for database, API, or external service testing
- Organizing large test suites with hundreds or thousands of tests
- Debugging failing tests or improving test reliability
- Setting up continuous integration testing pipelines
- Measuring and improving code coverage
- Writing integration, unit, or end-to-end tests
