How to Parametrize Tests in Python with pytest
This code demonstrates how to use pytest's @pytest.mark.parametrize decorator to run a single test function against multiple input sets, ensuring comprehensive coverage with minimal code duplication.
import pytest
def multiply(a, b):
return a * b
@pytest.mark.parametrize("x, y, expected", [
(2, 3, 6),
(4, 5, 20),
(0, 10, 0),
(7, 1, 7),
])
def test_multiply(x, y, expected):
result = multiply(x, y)
assert result == expected, f"multiply({x}, {y}) = {result}, expected {expected}"

This script generates mock multivariate JSON-compatible data with measurements and boolean flags for testing and experimentation pipelines.
import json

"""Generate mock multivariate data as list of JSON-compatible dicts."""
records = []
for i in range(row_count):
record = {
"id": i + 1,
"measurements": {
"temperature": 20.5 + i * 1.5,
