The test GitHub Actions job was failing even when repository state was valid because pytest exits with code 5 when no tests are collected. This change updates the workflow to treat that specific exit code as non-failing so the job can proceed to notebook execution.

• Root cause

  • pytest in .github/workflows/tests.yml failed the job on exit code 5 (collected 0 items), which is not a test failure.

• Workflow change

  • Updated the Python test step to accept exit code 5 while preserving failure behavior for all other non-zero exits.

• Resulting behavior

  • CI still fails on real test errors.
  • CI no longer fails solely because no pytest tests exist yet.
