Test Pyramid

        /  E2E  \        <- Few, slow, expensive

Unit Test Pattern (Arrange, Act, Assert)

def test_user_creation():
    # Arrange
    user_data = {"name": "Alice", "email": "[email protected]"}
    # Act
    user = UserService.create(user_data)
    # Assert
    assert user.name == "Alice"
    assert user.id is not None

Coverage: 80% minimum, 100% on critical paths

Mocking

• Mock external services, not the thing under test
• Prefer dependency injection over monkey patching

Anti-Patterns

• Tests dependent on execution order or external services
• Tests without assertions; flaky timing-dependent tests
• Testing implementation instead of behavior

Checklist

• [ ] All public APIs have tests
• [ ] Edge cases covered
• [ ] Tests are independent and deterministic
• [ ] Coverage above 80%
• [ ] Test names describe behavior
