# Writing Effective Python Tests

## Core Principles

Every test should be **atomic**, **self-contained**, and test **single functionality**. A test that tests multiple things is harder to debug and maintain.

## Test Structure

### Atomic unit tests

Each test should verify a single behavior. The test name should tell you what's broken when it fails. Multiple assertions are fine when they all verify the same behavior.

```python
# Good: Name tells you what's broken
