maintaining-python-tests

maintaining-python-tests is a Test suite operations & coverage skill for AI agents, published by PostHog in the posthog repository on GitHub. Skillspace rates maintaining-python-tests D (63/100) and it passed the safety scan; the rating is based on static analysis only.

Maintains existing pytest and Django test suites without weakening correctness. Use when asked to reduce Python test runtime or CI work, investigate slow pytest families, remove stale migration tests, consolidate repeated setup, improve Python test ownership, or measure whether a test optimization worked after merge. Ranks work by measured cost, applies the writing-tests value gate to existing coverage, preserves distinct behavior cases, validates isolation after shared-fixture changes, and separates testcase work from pytest-suite wall time. For an intermittent failure, use fixing-flaky-tests instead.
