+Python has a great built-in [unit test](https://docs.python.org/3.7/library/unittest.html) framework. This post will give a skeleton for how to format the files in your `tests` directory.
+
+Example `tests/test_basic.py`
+
+```python
+import unittest
+
+class Tester(unittest.TestCase):
+    def setUp(self):
+        """To Run Before Every Test Case"""
+        pass
+
+    def tearDown(self):
+        """To Run After Every Test Case"""
+        pass
+
+    def test_something(self):
+        """A Test Case"""
+        self.assertEqual(True, True)
+
+if __name__ == '__main__':
+    unittest.main()
+```
+
+To auto-discover and run your tests
+
+```bash
+python -m unittest discover
+```
+
