Introduction

Python is a great language for building various types of applications, especially in today's landscape where machine learning and AI are rapidly advancing. With this growth in services, there’s a strong need for well-designed, maintainable, and scalable APIs. That’s where FastAPI comes in, a powerful async web API framework for Python that's both simple and robust https://fastapi.tiangolo.com/.

In this article, I won’t be covering the details of how FastAPI works or how to build APIs with it. Instead, the focus will be on writing integration and unit tests for FastAPI applications using Pytest. This guide is ideal for those familiar with Python and frameworks like Flask, Django, or other web frameworks (e.g., NestJS, Express, Spring Boot) who want to dive into building tests with Python and Pytest.

Conclusion

Writing unit and integration test is essential as writing the code it self . ignoring tests means that am ignoring the quality of the code am writing . The repo contains more unit and integration tests you can check.

Have a nice testing :D
