Testing with Pytest

import pytest
from package_name.core.services import calculate_total

class TestCalculateTotal:
    def test_returns_sum_of_items(self):
        # Arrange
        items = [{"price": 10}, {"price": 20}]
        
        # Act
        result = calculate_total(items)
        
        # Assert
        assert result == 30

    def test_returns_zero_for_empty_list(self):
        assert calculate_total([]) == 0

    def test_raises_on_invalid_item(self):
        with pytest.raises(ValueError):
            calculate_total([{"invalid": "item"}])

Patterns

Pydantic for Data Validation

from pydantic import BaseModel, Field

class CreateUserRequest(BaseModel):
    email: str = Field(..., min_length=5)
    name: str = Field(..., max_length=100)

Dependency Injection

# Don't import dependencies directly in business logic
# Pass them in

# Bad
from .db import database
def get_user(user_id: int) -> User:
    return database.fetch(user_id)

# Good
def get_user(user_id: int, db: Database) -> User:
    return db.fetch(user_id)

Result Pattern (No Exceptions in Core)

from dataclasses import dataclass

@dataclass
class Result[T]:
    value: T | None
    error: str | None
    
    @property
    def is_ok(self) -> bool:
        return self.error is None

Python Anti-Patterns

❌ from module import *
❌ Mutable default arguments
❌ Bare except: clauses
❌ Using type: ignore without explanation
❌ Global variables for state
❌ Classes when functions suffice
