Problem

The slowest test in the entire suite is tests/timmy/test_introspection.py::TestRunSelfTests::test_returns_dict_with_expected_keys at 31.84 seconds.

It calls run_self_tests(scope="tests/timmy/test_introspection.py") which spawns an actual pytest subprocess to run tests. This is pytest-inside-pytest.

Why It Matters

31s for a single test is 44% of the total 72s test run. It's marked @pytest.mark.slow but still runs in the default suite.

Fix

Option A (preferred): Exclude @pytest.mark.slow from the default tox -e unit run. Add -m "not slow" to the pytest args in tox.ini. Run slow tests separately.

Option B: Mock the subprocess call in the test so it doesn't actually spawn pytest.

Files

  • tests/timmy/test_introspection.py:168 — the test
  • tox.ini or pyproject.toml — add -m "not slow" to default test config

Acceptance Criteria

  • Default tox -e unit completes in under 60s
  • Slow tests still run but in a separate command (e.g., tox -e slow)
