TODO:

• remove the boilerplate from the cookiecutter template. No cities.json stuff.

• simplify the project, e.g. don't need slow markers, ruff, test:quick, etc.

• Fix there are some lingering, explicit references to cookiecutter in the generated project

    """
    Unit tests for cookiecutter.repo_name.
  
    This folder ideally has a parallel folder structure with the src/cookiecutter.package_import_name/ folder.
  
    In general, unit tests
  
    - should be fast and test a single function or class
    - should not depend on external resources (e.g., databases, network, etc.)
