In this episode, Nikhil Krishna discusses the popular pytest Python testing tool with Brian Okken, author of Python Testing with pytest. They start by exploring why pytest is so popular in the Python community, including its focus on simplicity, readability, and developer ease-of-use; what makes pytest unique; the setup and teardown of tests using fixtures, parameterization, and the plugin ecosystem; mocking; why we should design for testing, and how to reduce the need for mocking; how to set up a project for testability; test-driven development, and designing your tests to support refactoring. Finally, the episode examines some complementary tools that can improve the python testing experience.
