# Pytest Mocking Strategy — Learn a decision-driven framework for mocking in pytest that separates external boundaries from business logic. This skill covers autospec enforcement, async mock patterns, reusable mock factories, and a clear matrix for what to mock versus what to test directly. Master the golden rule—mock external dependencies, test the unit in isolation—to write tests that survive refactoring.
