Description

It's definitely passed time to create some CosmoSim tests. I've been looking at ESO's 'tests' folder for some inspiration on how I should start with this. Does anyone have a barebones example of what tests should look like? I'm having some difficulty understanding how they are run, and also the basic structure I'm supposed to be following.

Ideally, I'd like to start with just checking login/logout to see if it works the way it's supposed to. From there I can add more.

Research direction

Start by examining the ESO tests folder for structure and test-running conventions, then locate the CosmoSim login and logout entry points in astroquery. Define a minimal test layout that verifies both operations behave as expected, and run the project's test command to confirm the tests are discovered and pass.
