-# Python Testing Patterns
-
-Comprehensive testing strategies for Python applications using pytest, TDD methodology, and best practices.
-
-## When to Activate
-
-- Writing new Python code (follow TDD: red, green, refactor)
-- Designing test suites for Python projects
-- Reviewing Python test coverage
-- Setting up testing infrastructure
-
-## Core Testing Philosophy
-
-### Test-Driven Development (TDD)
-
-Always follow the TDD cycle:
-
-1. **RED**: Write a failing test for the desired behavior
-2. **GREEN**: Write minimal code to make the test pass
-3. **REFACTOR**: Improve code while keeping tests green
-
-```python
-# Step 1: Write failing test (RED)
-def test_add_numbers():
-    result = add(2, 3)
-    assert result == 5
-
-# Step 2: Write minimal implementation (GREEN)
-def add(a, b):
-    return a + b
-
-# Step 3: Refactor if needed (REFACTOR)
-```
-
-### Coverage Requirements
-
-- **Target**: 80%+ code coverage
-- **Critical paths**: 100% coverage required
-- Use `pytest --cov` to measure coverage
-
-```bash
-pytest --cov=mypackage --cov-report=term-missing --cov-report=html
-```
-
-## pytest Fundamentals
-
-### Basic Test Structure
-
-```python
-import pytest
-
-def test_addition():
-    """Test basic addition."""
-    assert 2 + 2 == 4
-
-def test_string_uppercase():
-    """Test string uppercasing."""
-    text = "hello"
-    assert text.upper() == "HELLO"
-
-def test_list_append():
-    """Test list append."""
-    items = [1, 2, 3]
-    items.append(4)
-    assert 4 in items
-    assert len(items) == 4
-```
-
-### Assertions
-
-```python
-# Equality
-assert result == expected
-
-# Inequality
-assert result != unexpected
-
-# Truthiness
-assert result  # Truthy
-assert not result  # Falsy
-assert result is True  # Exactly True
-assert result is False  # Exactly False
-assert result is None  # Exactly None
-
-# Membership
-assert item in collection
-assert item not in collection
-
-# Comparisons
-assert result > 0
-assert 0 <= result <= 100
-
-# Type checking
-assert isinstance(result, str)
-
-# Exception testing (preferred approach)
-with pytest.raises(ValueError):
-    raise ValueError("error message")
-
-# Check exception message
-with pytest.raises(ValueError, match="invalid input"):
-    raise ValueError("invalid input provided")
-
-# Check exception attributes
-with pytest.raises(ValueError) as exc_info:
-    raise ValueError("error message")
-assert str(exc_info.value) == "error message"
-```
-
-## Fixtures
-
-### Basic Fixture Usage
-
-```python
-import pytest
-
-@pytest.fixture
-def sample_data():
-    """Fixture providing sample data."""
-    return {"name": "Alice", "age": 30}
-
-def test_sample_data(sample_data):
-    """Test using the fixture."""
-    assert sample_data["name"] == "Alice"
-    assert sample_data["age"] == 30
-```
-
-### Fixture with Setup/Teardown
-
-```python
-@pytest.fixture
-def database():
-    """Fixture with setup and teardown."""
-    # Setup
-    db = Database(":memory:")
-    db.create_tables()
-    db.insert_test_data()
-
-    yield db  # Provide to test
-
-    # Teardown
-    db.close()
-
-def test_database_query(database):
-    """Test database operations."""
-    result = database.query("SELECT * FROM users")
-    assert len(result) > 0
-```
-
-### Fixture Scopes
-
-```python
-# Function scope (default) - runs for each test
-@pytest.fixture
-def temp_file():
-    with open("temp.txt", "w") as f:
-        yield f
-    os.remove("temp.txt")
-
-# Module scope - runs once per module
-@pytest.fixture(scope="module")
-def module_db():
-    db = Database(":memory:")
-    db.create_tables()
-    yield db
-    db.close()
-
-# Session scope - runs once per test session
-@pytest.fixture(scope="session")
-def shared_resource():
-    resource = ExpensiveResource()
-    yield resource
-    resource.cleanup()
-```
-
-### Fixture with Parameters
-
-```python
-@pytest.fixture(params=[1, 2, 3])
-def number(request):
-    """Parameterized fixture."""
-    return request.param
-
-def test_numbers(number):
-    """Test runs 3 times, once for each parameter."""
-    assert number > 0
-```
-
-### Using Multiple Fixtures
-
-```python
-@pytest.fixture
-def user():
-    return User(id=1, name="Alice")
-
-@pytest.fixture
-def admin():
-    return User(id=2, name="Admin", role="admin")
-
-def test_user_admin_interaction(user, admin):
-    """Test using multiple fixtures."""
-    assert admin.can_manage(user)
-```
-
-### Autouse Fixtures
-
-```python
-@pytest.fixture(autouse=True)
-def reset_config():
-    """Automatically runs before every test."""
-    Config.reset()
-    yield
-    Config.cleanup()
-
-def test_without_fixture_call():
-    # reset_config runs automatically
-    assert Config.get_setting("debug") is False
-```
-
-### Conftest.py for Shared Fixtures
-
-```python
-# tests/conftest.py
-import pytest
-
-@pytest.fixture
-def client():
-    """Shared fixture for all tests."""
-    app = create_app(testing=True)
-    with app.test_client() as client:
-        yield client
-
-@pytest.fixture
-def auth_headers(client):
-    """Generate auth headers for API testing."""
-    response = client.post("/api/login", json={
-        "username": "test",
-        "password": "test"
-    })
-    token = response.json["token"]
-    return {"Authorization": f"Bearer {token}"}
-```
-
-## Parametrization
-
-### Basic Parametrization
-
-```python
-@pytest.mark.parametrize("input,expected", [
-    ("hello", "HELLO"),
-    ("world", "WORLD"),
-    ("PyThOn", "PYTHON"),
-])
-def test_uppercase(input, expected):
-    """Test runs 3 times with different inputs."""
-    assert input.upper() == expected
-```
-
-### Multiple Parameters
-
-```python
-@pytest.mark.parametrize("a,b,expected", [
-    (2, 3, 5),
-    (0, 0, 0),
-    (-1, 1, 0),
-    (100, 200, 300),
-])
-def test_add(a, b, expected):
-    """Test addition with multiple inputs."""
-    assert add(a, b) == expected
-```
-
-### Parametrize with IDs
-
-```python
-@pytest.mark.parametrize("input,expected", [
-    ("valid@email.com", True),
-    ("invalid", False),
-    ("@no-domain.com", False),
-], ids=["valid-email", "missing-at", "missing-domain"])
-def test_email_validation(input, expected):
-    """Test email validation with readable test IDs."""
-    assert is_valid_email(input) is expected
-```
-
-### Parametrized Fixtures
-
-```python
-@pytest.fixture(params=["sqlite", "postgresql", "mysql"])
-def db(request):
-    """Test against multiple database backends."""
-    if request.param == "sqlite":
-        return Database(":memory:")
-    elif request.param == "postgresql":
-        return Database("postgresql://localhost/test")
-    elif request.param == "mysql":
-        return Database("mysql://localhost/test")
-
-def test_database_operations(db):
-    """Test runs 3 times, once for each database."""
-    result = db.query("SELECT 1")
-    assert result is not None
-```
-
-## Markers and Test Selection
-
-### Custom Markers
-
-```python
-# Mark slow tests
-@pytest.mark.slow
-def test_slow_operation():
-    time.sleep(5)
-
-# Mark integration tests
-@pytest.mark.integration
-def test_api_integration():
-    response = requests.get("https://api.example.com")
-    assert response.status_code == 200
-
-# Mark unit tests
-@pytest.mark.unit
-def test_unit_logic():
-    assert calculate(2, 3) == 5
-```
-
-### Run Specific Tests
-
-```bash
-# Run only fast tests
-pytest -m "not slow"
-
-# Run only integration tests
-pytest -m integration
-
-# Run integration or slow tests
-pytest -m "integration or slow"
-
-# Run tests marked as unit but not slow
-pytest -m "unit and not slow"
-```
-
-### Configure Markers in pytest.ini
-
-```ini
-[pytest]
-markers =
-    slow: marks tests as slow
-    integration: marks tests as integration tests
-    unit: marks tests as unit tests
-    django: marks tests as requiring Django
-```
-
-## Mocking and Patching
-
-### Mocking Functions
-
-```python
-from unittest.mock import patch, Mock
-
-@patch("mypackage.external_api_call")
-def test_with_mock(api_call_mock):
-    """Test with mocked external API."""
-    api_call_mock.return_value = {"status": "success"}
-
-    result = my_function()
-
-    api_call_mock.assert_called_once()
-    assert result["status"] == "success"
-```
-
-### Mocking Return Values
-
-```python
-@patch("mypackage.Database.connect")
-def test_database_connection(connect_mock):
-    """Test with mocked database connection."""
-    connect_mock.return_value = MockConnection()
-
-    db = Database()
-    db.connect()
-
-    connect_mock.assert_called_once_with("localhost")
-```
-
-### Mocking Exceptions
-
-```python
-@patch("mypackage.api_call")
-def test_api_error_handling(api_call_mock):
-    """Test error handling with mocked exception."""
-    api_call_mock.side_effect = ConnectionError("Network error")
-
-    with pytest.raises(ConnectionError):
-        api_call()
-
-    api_call_mock.assert_called_once()
-```
-
-### Mocking Context Managers
-
-```python
-@patch("builtins.open", new_callable=mock_open)
-def test_file_reading(mock_file):
-    """Test file reading with mocked open."""
-    mock_file.return_value.read.return_value = "file content"
-
-    result = read_file("test.txt")
-
-    mock_file.assert_called_once_with("test.txt", "r")
-    assert result == "file content"
-```
-
-### Using Autospec
-
-```python
-@patch("mypackage.DBConnection", autospec=True)
-def test_autospec(db_mock):
-    """Test with autospec to catch API misuse."""
-    db = db_mock.return_value
-    db.query("SELECT * FROM users")
-
-    # This would fail if DBConnection doesn't have query method
-    db_mock.assert_called_once()
-```
-
-### Mock Class Instances
-
-```python
-class TestUserService:
-    @patch("mypackage.UserRepository")
-    def test_create_user(self, repo_mock):
-        """Test user creation with mocked repository."""
-        repo_mock.return_value.save.return_value = User(id=1, name="Alice")
-
-        service = UserService(repo_mock.return_value)
-        user = service.create_user(name="Alice")
-
-        assert user.name == "Alice"
-        repo_mock.return_value.save.assert_called_once()
-```
-
-### Mock Property
-
-```python
-@pytest.fixture
-def mock_config():
-    """Create a mock with a property."""
-    config = Mock()
-    type(config).debug = PropertyMock(return_value=True)
-    type(config).api_key = PropertyMock(return_value="test-key")
-    return config
-
-def test_with_mock_config(mock_config):
-    """Test with mocked config properties."""
-    assert mock_config.debug is True
-    assert mock_config.api_key == "test-key"
-```
-
-## Testing Async Code
-
-### Async Tests with pytest-asyncio
-
-```python
-import pytest
-
-@pytest.mark.asyncio
-async def test_async_function():
-    """Test async function."""
-    result = await async_add(2, 3)
-    assert result == 5
-
-@pytest.mark.asyncio
-async def test_async_with_fixture(async_client):
-    """Test async with async fixture."""
-    response = await async_client.get("/api/users")
-    assert response.status_code == 200
-```
-
-### Async Fixture
-
-```python
-@pytest.fixture
-async def async_client():
-    """Async fixture providing async test client."""
-    app = create_app()
-    async with app.test_client() as client:
-        yield client
-
-@pytest.mark.asyncio
-async def test_api_endpoint(async_client):
-    """Test using async fixture."""
-    response = await async_client.get("/api/data")
-    assert response.status_code == 200
-```
-
-### Mocking Async Functions
-
-```python
-@pytest.mark.asyncio
-@patch("mypackage.async_api_call")
-async def test_async_mock(api_call_mock):
-    """Test async function with mock."""
-    api_call_mock.return_value = {"status": "ok"}
-
-    result = await my_async_function()
-
-    api_call_mock.assert_awaited_once()
-    assert result["status"] == "ok"
-```
-
-## Testing Exceptions
-
-### Testing Expected Exceptions
-
-```python
-def test_divide_by_zero():
-    """Test that dividing by zero raises ZeroDivisionError."""
-    with pytest.raises(ZeroDivisionError):
-        divide(10, 0)
-
-def test_custom_exception():
-    """Test custom exception with message."""
-    with pytest.raises(ValueError, match="invalid input"):
-        validate_input("invalid")
-```
-
-### Testing Exception Attributes
-
-```python
-def test_exception_with_details():
-    """Test exception with custom attributes."""
-    with pytest.raises(CustomError) as exc_info:
-        raise CustomError("error", code=400)
-
-    assert exc_info.value.code == 400
-    assert "error" in str(exc_info.value)
-```
-
-## Testing Side Effects
-
-### Testing File Operations
-
-```python
-import tempfile
-import os
-
-def test_file_processing():
-    """Test file processing with temp file."""
-    with tempfile.NamedTemporaryFile(mode='w', delete=False, suffix='.txt') as f:
-        f.write("test content")
-        temp_path = f.name
-
-    try:
-        result = process_file(temp_path)
-        assert result == "processed: test content"
-    finally:
-        os.unlink(temp_path)
-```
-
-### Testing with pytest's tmp_path Fixture
-
-```python
-def test_with_tmp_path(tmp_path):
-    """Test using pytest's built-in temp path fixture."""
-    test_file = tmp_path / "test.txt"
-    test_file.write_text("hello world")
-
-    result = process_file(str(test_file))
-    assert result == "hello world"
-    # tmp_path automatically cleaned up
-```
-
-### Testing with tmpdir Fixture
-
-```python
-def test_with_tmpdir(tmpdir):
-    """Test using pytest's tmpdir fixture."""
-    test_file = tmpdir.join("test.txt")
-    test_file.write("data")
-
-    result = process_file(str(test_file))
-    assert result == "data"
-```

-        self.service.delete_user(user)
-        assert not self.service.user_exists(1)
-```
-
-## Best Practices
-
-### DO
-
-- **Follow TDD**: Write tests before code (red-green-refactor)
-- **Test one thing**: Each test should verify a single behavior
-- **Use descriptive names**: `test_user_login_with_invalid_credentials_fails`
-- **Use fixtures**: Eliminate duplication with fixtures
-- **Mock external dependencies**: Don't depend on external services
-- **Test edge cases**: Empty inputs, None values, boundary conditions
-- **Aim for 80%+ coverage**: Focus on critical paths
-- **Keep tests fast**: Use marks to separate slow tests
-
-### DON'T
-
-- **Don't test implementation**: Test behavior, not internals
-- **Don't use complex conditionals in tests**: Keep tests simple
-- **Don't ignore test failures**: All tests must pass
-- **Don't test third-party code**: Trust libraries to work
-- **Don't share state between tests**: Tests should be independent
-- **Don't catch exceptions in tests**: Use `pytest.raises`
-- **Don't use print statements**: Use assertions and pytest output
-- **Don't write tests that are too brittle**: Avoid over-specific mocks
-
-## Common Patterns
-
-### Testing API Endpoints (FastAPI/Flask)
-
-```python
-@pytest.fixture
-def client():
-    app = create_app(testing=True)
-    return app.test_client()
-
-def test_get_user(client):
-    response = client.get("/api/users/1")
-    assert response.status_code == 200
-    assert response.json["id"] == 1
-
-def test_create_user(client):
-    response = client.post("/api/users", json={
-        "name": "Alice",
-        "email": "alice@example.com"
-    })
-    assert response.status_code == 201
-    assert response.json["name"] == "Alice"
-```
-
-### Testing Database Operations
-
-```python
-@pytest.fixture
-def db_session():
-    """Create a test database session."""
-    session = Session(bind=engine)
-    session.begin_nested()
-    yield session
-    session.rollback()
-    session.close()
-
-def test_create_user(db_session):
-    user = User(name="Alice", email="alice@example.com")
-    db_session.add(user)
-    db_session.commit()
-
-    retrieved = db_session.query(User).filter_by(name="Alice").first()
-    assert retrieved.email == "alice@example.com"
-```
-
-### Testing Class Methods
-
-```python
-class TestCalculator:
-    @pytest.fixture
-    def calculator(self):
-        return Calculator()
-
-    def test_add(self, calculator):
-        assert calculator.add(2, 3) == 5
-
-    def test_divide_by_zero(self, calculator):
-        with pytest.raises(ZeroDivisionError):
-            calculator.divide(10, 0)
-```
-
-## pytest Configuration
-
-### pytest.ini
-
-```ini
-[pytest]
-testpaths = tests
-python_files = test_*.py
-python_classes = Test*
-python_functions = test_*
-addopts =
-    --strict-markers
-    --disable-warnings
-    --cov=mypackage
-    --cov-report=term-missing
-    --cov-report=html
-markers =
-    slow: marks tests as slow
-    integration: marks tests as integration tests
-    unit: marks tests as unit tests
-```
-
-### pyproject.toml
-
-```toml
-[tool.pytest.ini_options]
-testpaths = ["tests"]
-python_files = ["test_*.py"]
-python_classes = ["Test*"]
-python_functions = ["test_*"]
-addopts = [
-    "--strict-markers",
-    "--cov=mypackage",
-    "--cov-report=term-missing",
-    "--cov-report=html",
-]
-markers = [
-    "slow: marks tests as slow",
-    "integration: marks tests as integration tests",
-    "unit: marks tests as unit tests",
-]
-```
-
-## Running Tests
-
-```bash
-# Run all tests
-pytest
-
-# Run specific file
-pytest tests/test_utils.py
-
-# Run specific test
-pytest tests/test_utils.py::test_function
-
-# Run with verbose output
-pytest -v
-
-# Run with coverage
-pytest --cov=mypackage --cov-report=html
-
-# Run only fast tests
-pytest -m "not slow"
-
-# Run until first failure
-pytest -x
-
-# Run and stop on N failures
-pytest --maxfail=3
-
-# Run last failed tests
-pytest --lf
-
-# Run tests with pattern
-pytest -k "test_user"
-
-# Run with debugger on failure
-pytest --pdb
-```
-
-## Quick Reference
-
-| Pattern | Usage |
-|---------|-------|
-| `pytest.raises()` | Test expected exceptions |
-| `@pytest.fixture()` | Create reusable test fixtures |
-| `@pytest.mark.parametrize()` | Run tests with multiple inputs |
-| `@pytest.mark.slow` | Mark slow tests |
-| `pytest -m "not slow"` | Skip slow tests |
-| `@patch()` | Mock functions and classes |
-| `tmp_path` fixture | Automatic temp directory |
-| `pytest --cov` | Generate coverage report |
-| `assert` | Simple and readable assertions |
-
-**Remember**: Tests are code too. Keep them clean, readable, and maintainable. Good tests catch bugs; great tests prevent them.

+# Step 3: Refactor if needed (REFACTOR)
+```
+
+### Coverage Requirements
+
+- **Target**: 80%+ code coverage
+- **Critical paths**: 100% coverage required
+- Use `pytest --cov` to measure coverage
+
+```bash
+pytest --cov=mypackage --cov-report=term-missing --cov-report=html
+```
+
+## pytest Fundamentals
+
+### Basic Test Structure
+
+```python
+import pytest
+
+def test_addition():
+    """Test basic addition."""
+    assert 2 + 2 == 4
+
+def test_string_uppercase():
+    """Test string uppercasing."""
+    text = "hello"
+    assert text.upper() == "HELLO"
+
+def test_list_append():
+    """Test list append."""
+    items = [1, 2, 3]
+    items.append(4)
+    assert 4 in items
+    assert len(items) == 4
+```
+
+### Assertions
+
+```python
+# Equality
+assert result == expected
+
+# Inequality
+assert result != unexpected
+
+# Truthiness
+assert result  # Truthy
+assert not result  # Falsy
+assert result is True  # Exactly True
+assert result is False  # Exactly False
+assert result is None  # Exactly None
+
+# Membership
+assert item in collection
+assert item not in collection
+
+# Comparisons
+assert result > 0
+assert 0 <= result <= 100
+
+# Type checking
+assert isinstance(result, str)
+
+# Exception testing (preferred approach)
+with pytest.raises(ValueError):
+    raise ValueError("error message")
+
+# Check exception message
+with pytest.raises(ValueError, match="invalid input"):
+    raise ValueError("invalid input provided")
+
+# Check exception attributes
+with pytest.raises(ValueError) as exc_info:
+    raise ValueError("error message")
+assert str(exc_info.value) == "error message"
+```
+
+## Fixtures
+
+### Basic Fixture Usage
+
+```python
+import pytest
+
+@pytest.fixture
+def sample_data():
+    """Fixture providing sample data."""
+    return {"name": "Alice", "age": 30}
+
+def test_sample_data(sample_data):
+    """Test using the fixture."""
+    assert sample_data["name"] == "Alice"
+    assert sample_data["age"] == 30
+```
+
+### Fixture with Setup/Teardown
+
+```python
+@pytest.fixture
+def database():
+    """Fixture with setup and teardown."""
+    # Setup
+    db = Database(":memory:")
+    db.create_tables()
+    db.insert_test_data()
+
+    yield db  # Provide to test
+
+    # Teardown
+    db.close()
+
+def test_database_query(database):
+    """Test database operations."""
+    result = database.query("SELECT * FROM users")
+    assert len(result) > 0
+```
+
+### Fixture Scopes
+
+```python
+# Function scope (default) - runs for each test
+@pytest.fixture
+def temp_file():
+    with open("temp.txt", "w") as f:
+        yield f
+    os.remove("temp.txt")
+
+# Module scope - runs once per module
+@pytest.fixture(scope="module")
+def module_db():
+    db = Database(":memory:")
+    db.create_tables()
+    yield db
+    db.close()
+
+# Session scope - runs once per test session
+@pytest.fixture(scope="session")
+def shared_resource():
+    resource = ExpensiveResource()
+    yield resource
+    resource.cleanup()
+```
+
+### Fixture with Parameters
+
+```python
+@pytest.fixture(params=[1, 2, 3])
+def number(request):
+    """Parameterized fixture."""
+    return request.param
+
+def test_numbers(number):
+    """Test runs 3 times, once for each parameter."""
+    assert number > 0
+```
+
+### Using Multiple Fixtures
+
+```python
+@pytest.fixture
+def user():
+    return User(id=1, name="Alice")
+
+@pytest.fixture
+def admin():
+    return User(id=2, name="Admin", role="admin")
+
+def test_user_admin_interaction(user, admin):
+    """Test using multiple fixtures."""
+    assert admin.can_manage(user)
+```
+
+### Autouse Fixtures
+
+```python
+@pytest.fixture(autouse=True)
+def reset_config():
+    """Automatically runs before every test."""
+    Config.reset()
+    yield
+    Config.cleanup()
+
+def test_without_fixture_call():
+    # reset_config runs automatically
+    assert Config.get_setting("debug") is False
+```
+
+### Conftest.py for Shared Fixtures
+
+```python
+# tests/conftest.py
+import pytest
+
+@pytest.fixture
+def client():
+    """Shared fixture for all tests."""
+    app = create_app(testing=True)
+    with app.test_client() as client:
+        yield client
+
+@pytest.fixture
+def auth_headers(client):
+    """Generate auth headers for API testing."""
+    response = client.post("/api/login", json={
+        "username": "test",
+        "password": "test"
+    })
+    token = response.json["token"]
+    return {"Authorization": f"Bearer {token}"}
+```
+
+## Parametrization
+
+### Basic Parametrization
+
+```python
+@pytest.mark.parametrize("input,expected", [
+    ("hello", "HELLO"),
+    ("world", "WORLD"),
+    ("PyThOn", "PYTHON"),
+])
+def test_uppercase(input, expected):
+    """Test runs 3 times with different inputs."""
+    assert input.upper() == expected
+```
+
+### Multiple Parameters
+
+```python
+@pytest.mark.parametrize("a,b,expected", [
+    (2, 3, 5),
+    (0, 0, 0),
+    (-1, 1, 0),
+    (100, 200, 300),
+])
+def test_add(a, b, expected):
+    """Test addition with multiple inputs."""
+    assert add(a, b) == expected
+```
+
+### Parametrize with IDs
+
+```python
+@pytest.mark.parametrize("input,expected", [
+    ("valid@email.com", True),
+    ("invalid", False),
+    ("@no-domain.com", False),
+], ids=["valid-email", "missing-at", "missing-domain"])
+def test_email_validation(input, expected):
+    """Test email validation with readable test IDs."""
+    assert is_valid_email(input) is expected
+```
+
+### Parametrized Fixtures
+
+```python
+@pytest.fixture(params=["sqlite", "postgresql", "mysql"])
+def db(request):
+    """Test against multiple database backends."""
+    if request.param == "sqlite":
+        return Database(":memory:")
+    elif request.param == "postgresql":
+        return Database("postgresql://localhost/test")
+    elif request.param == "mysql":
+        return Database("mysql://localhost/test")
+
+def test_database_operations(db):
+    """Test runs 3 times, once for each database."""
+    result = db.query("SELECT 1")
+    assert result is not None
+```
+
+## Markers and Test Selection
+
+### Custom Markers
+
+```python
+# Mark slow tests
+@pytest.mark.slow
+def test_slow_operation():
+    time.sleep(5)
+
+# Mark integration tests
+@pytest.mark.integration
+def test_api_integration():
+    response = requests.get("https://api.example.com")
+    assert response.status_code == 200
+
+# Mark unit tests
+@pytest.mark.unit
+def test_unit_logic():
+    assert calculate(2, 3) == 5
+```
+
+### Run Specific Tests
+
+```bash
+# Run only fast tests
+pytest -m "not slow"
+
+# Run only integration tests
+pytest -m integration
+
+# Run integration or slow tests
+pytest -m "integration or slow"
+
+# Run tests marked as unit but not slow
+pytest -m "unit and not slow"
+```
+
+### Configure Markers in pytest.ini
+
+```ini
+[pytest]
+markers =
+    slow: marks tests as slow
+    integration: marks tests as integration tests
+    unit: marks tests as unit tests
+    django: marks tests as requiring Django
+```

+def test_with_mock_config(mock_config):
+    """Test with mocked config properties."""
+    assert mock_config.debug is True
+    assert mock_config.api_key == "test-key"
+```
+
+## Testing Async Code
+
+### Async Tests with pytest-asyncio
+
+```python
+import pytest
+
+@pytest.mark.asyncio
+async def test_async_function():
+    """Test async function."""

+        raise CustomError("error", code=400)
+
+    assert exc_info.value.code == 400
+    assert "error" in str(exc_info.value)
+```
+
+## Testing Side Effects
+
+### Testing File Operations
+
+```python
+import tempfile
+import os
+
+def test_file_processing():
+    """Test file processing with temp file."""
+    with tempfile.NamedTemporaryFile(mode='w', delete=False, suffix='.txt') as f:
+        f.write("test content")
+        temp_path = f.name
+
+    try:
+        result = process_file(temp_path)
+        assert result == "processed: test content"
+    finally:
+        os.unlink(temp_path)
+```
+
+### Testing with pytest's tmp_path Fixture
+
+```python
+def test_with_tmp_path(tmp_path):

+```
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### DO
+
+- **Follow TDD**: Write tests before code (red-green-refactor)
+- **Test one thing**: Each test should verify a single behavior
+- **Use descriptive names**: `test_user_login_with_invalid_credentials_fails`
+- **Use fixtures**: Eliminate duplication with fixtures
+- **Mock external dependencies**: Don't depend on external services
+- **Test edge cases**: Empty inputs, None values, boundary conditions
+- **Aim for 80%+ coverage**: Focus on critical paths
+- **Keep tests fast**: Use marks to separate slow tests
+
+### DON'T
+
+- **Don't test implementation**: Test behavior, not internals
+- **Don't use complex conditionals in tests**: Keep tests simple
+- **Don't ignore test failures**: All tests must pass
+- **Don't test third-party code**: Trust libraries to work
+- **Don't share state between tests**: Tests should be independent
+- **Don't catch exceptions in tests**: Use `pytest.raises`
+- **Don't use print statements**: Use assertions and pytest output
+- **Don't write tests that are too brittle**: Avoid over-specific mocks
+
+## Common Patterns
+
+### Testing API Endpoints (FastAPI/Flask)
+
+```python
+@pytest.fixture
+def client():
+    app = create_app(testing=True)
+    return app.test_client()
+
+def test_get_user(client):
+    response = client.get("/api/users/1")
+    assert response.status_code == 200
+    assert response.json["id"] == 1
+
+def test_create_user(client):
+    response = client.post("/api/users", json={
+        "name": "Alice",
+        "email": "alice@example.com"
+    })
+    assert response.status_code == 201
+    assert response.json["name"] == "Alice"
+```
+
+### Testing Database Operations
+
+```python
+@pytest.fixture
+def db_session():
+    """Create a test database session."""
+    session = Session(bind=engine)
+    session.begin_nested()
+    yield session
+    session.rollback()
+    session.close()
+
+def test_create_user(db_session):
+    user = User(name="Alice", email="alice@example.com")
+    db_session.add(user)
+    db_session.commit()
+
+    retrieved = db_session.query(User).filter_by(name="Alice").first()
+    assert retrieved.email == "alice@example.com"
+```
+
+### Testing Class Methods
+
+```python
+class TestCalculator:
+    @pytest.fixture
+    def calculator(self):
+        return Calculator()
+
+    def test_add(self, calculator):
+        assert calculator.add(2, 3) == 5
+
+    def test_divide_by_zero(self, calculator):
+        with pytest.raises(ZeroDivisionError):
+            calculator.divide(10, 0)
+```
+
+## pytest Configuration
+
+### pytest.ini
+
+```ini
+[pytest]
+testpaths = tests
+python_files = test_*.py
+python_classes = Test*
+python_functions = test_*
+addopts =
+    --strict-markers
+    --disable-warnings
+    --cov=mypackage
+    --cov-report=term-missing
+    --cov-report=html
+markers =
+    slow: marks tests as slow
+    integration: marks tests as integration tests
+    unit: marks tests as unit tests
+```
+
+### pyproject.toml
+
+```toml
+[tool.pytest.ini_options]
+testpaths = ["tests"]
+python_files = ["test_*.py"]
+python_classes = ["Test*"]
+python_functions = ["test_*"]
+addopts = [
+    "--strict-markers",

+]
+markers = [
+    "slow: marks tests as slow",
+    "integration: marks tests as integration tests",

+```
+
+## Running Tests
+
+```bash
+# Run all tests
+pytest
+
+# Run specific file
+pytest tests/test_utils.py
+
+# Run specific test
+pytest tests/test_utils.py::test_function
+
+# Run with verbose output
+pytest -v
+
+# Run with coverage
+pytest --cov=mypackage --cov-report=html
+
+# Run only fast tests
+pytest -m "not slow"
+
+# Run until first failure
+pytest -x
+
+# Run and stop on N failures
+pytest --maxfail=3
+
+# Run last failed tests
+pytest --lf
+
+# Run tests with pattern
+pytest -k "test_user"
+
+# Run with debugger on failure
+pytest --pdb
+```
+
+## Quick Reference
+
+| Pattern | Usage |
+|---------|-------|
+| `pytest.raises()` | Test expected exceptions |
+| `@pytest.fixture()` | Create reusable test fixtures |
+| `@pytest.mark.parametrize()` | Run tests with multiple inputs |
+| `@pytest.mark.slow` | Mark slow tests |
+| `pytest -m "not slow"` | Skip slow tests |
+| `@patch()` | Mock functions and classes |
+| `tmp_path` fixture | Automatic temp directory |
+| `pytest --cov` | Generate coverage report |
+| `assert` | Simple and readable assertions |
+
+**Remember**: Tests are code too. Keep them clean, readable, and maintainable. Good tests catch bugs; great tests prevent them.
