Describe a situation where you applied inheritance principles in object-oriented programming.

In one of my test automation projects, I created a base class TestBase that contained common methods for initializing the browser, setting up the environment, and cleaning up after tests. Then, for each type of test (for example, functional, integration), I created subclasses that inherited from this base class and extended it with specific logic. This approach helped avoid code duplication and simplified test maintenance.

class TestBase:
    def setup(self):
        print("Initializing browser")

    def teardown(self):
        print("Closing browser")

class FunctionalTest(TestBase):
    def run_test(self):
        self.setup()
        print("Running functional test")
        self.teardown()

ft = FunctionalTest()
ft.run_test()
