Production deployment patterns
Graceful shutdown, prod config, rollouts, readiness probes, and ship-with-confidence checks.
How to Mock a Container Registry in Python
Build an in-memory container registry mock with push, tag listing, and manifest retrieval logic for testing deployment tooling.

class MockRegistry:
def __init__(self):
self.repositories = defaultdict(dict)
def push_image(self, repo: str, tag: str, layers: list[str]) -> None:
self.repositories[repo][tag] = {

This code simulates a Kubernetes PreStop hook that delays shutdown, then mocks time.sleep to verify the hook logic without real delay.

from unittest.mock import patch
def pre_stop_hook():
"""Simulate a Kubernetes PreStop hook that sleeps before shutdown."""
print("PreStop hook started: delaying shutdown")
time.sleep(3)
print("PreStop hook completed: ready to shutdown")
