Extract pytest slow marker tuner into dedicated package #837

Description

@devin-ai-integration

Summary

The pytest slow marker tuner (bin/tune_slow_markers.py) should be extracted into its own dedicated package/repository. This tool is useful for any pytest project and could benefit the broader Python testing community.

Current Implementation

The tool currently lives in PyAirbyte's bin/ directory and provides:

  • Automated detection of slow tests based on execution time
  • AST-based marker addition/removal that preserves code formatting
  • Configurable timeout threshold (default: 7.0s)
  • Dry-run mode for preview
  • Optional removal of slow markers from fast tests
  • PEP 723 inline script metadata for standalone execution with uv run

Proposed Changes

  1. Create a new repository (e.g., pytest-slow-marker-tuner)
  2. Package structure:
    • Convert to a proper Python package with pyproject.toml
    • Add comprehensive tests
    • Add documentation (README, usage examples)
    • Set up CI/CD for testing and publishing
  3. Publishing:
    • Publish to PyPI for easy installation
    • Support installation via pipx or uv tool install
  4. Integration:
    • Update PyAirbyte to use the published package
    • Provide GitHub Action for easy CI integration

Benefits

  • Reusability: Any pytest project can use this tool
  • Maintainability: Dedicated repo with its own tests and CI
  • Discoverability: PyPI listing makes it easy to find
  • Community: Can accept contributions from broader community
