Temporal Python Testing Strategies
Comprehensive testing approaches for Temporal workflows using pytest, progressive disclosure resources for specific testing scenarios.
When to Use This Skill
- Unit testing workflows - Fast tests with time-skipping
- Integration testing - Workflows with mocked activities
- Replay testing - Validate determinism against production histories
- Local development - Set up Temporal server and pytest
- CI/CD integration - Automated testing pipelines
- Coverage strategies - Achieve ≥80% test coverage
Testing Philosophy
Recommended Approach (Source: docs.temporal.io/develop/python/testing-suite):
- Write majority as integration tests
- Use pytest with async fixtures
- Time-skipping enables fast feedback (month-long workflows → seconds)
