temporal-python-testing

temporal-python-testing is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from mattmre/EVOKORE-MCP-PUBLIC. It costs 45 tokens per session (1,013 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of temporal-python-testing, MIT.

A guide to testing Temporal workflows in Python with pytest, including fast tests that skip waiting for time and tests that check whether workflows remain deterministic.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for unit, integration, replay, and end-to-end tests, local development, and automated testing pipelines for Temporal workers.
Why use it?
Long-running workflows and distributed services are difficult to test by waiting for real time or using every external dependency. These approaches isolate workflow logic and catch replay problems.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

temporal-python-testing scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Origin

This is a copy

100% identical to temporal-python-testing — 5 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

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)
  • Mock activities to isolate workflow logic
  • Validate determinism with replay testing

Three Test Types:

  1. Unit: Workflows with time-skipping, activities with ActivityEnvironment
  2. Integration: Workers with mocked activities
  3. End-to-end: Full Temporal server with real activities (use sparingly)

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
