Does it support activity mocking?

Absolutely, it provides comprehensive strategies for integration testing where activities are mocked to isolate workflow logic from external API or database dependencies.

How does this skill handle long-running workflows?

It utilizes the Temporal WorkflowEnvironment's time-skipping feature to execute and test months of workflow logic in seconds, providing near-instant feedback.

Can I use this for determinism checks?

Yes, the skill includes specialized resources and patterns for replay testing to validate that workflow changes don't break determinism against existing execution histories.

What testing framework is supported?

This skill is specifically optimized for Python developers using the pytest framework alongside the official Temporal Python SDK.
