Task Testing Framework

Build a deployment task with a test suite that verifies task behavior without executing actual shell commands.

Requirements

Create a deployment task that executes these commands in sequence:

1. git status - Check repository status
2. pytest - Run test suite
3. python setup.py build - Build the application
4. ./deploy.sh - Deploy to production

The task should return a dictionary with a "status" key indicating success or failure.

Test Requirements

Your test suite must verify the task behavior using mocked command execution:

• Test successful deployment: all commands return success, task returns {"status": "deployed"} @test
• Test deployment failure: when pytest fails (non-zero exit code), task returns {"status": "tests_failed"} @test
• Test that no actual shell commands are executed during testing @test

invoke { .dependency }

Provides task execution and testing support.
