Summary
This PR updates the CI workflow to significantly speed up environment setup and test execution.
The pipeline now uses Mamba instead of Conda, caches Conda packages between runs, and simplifies test execution.
It also adds
pytestas a dependency inenvironment.yamlfor consistency between local and CI environments.Changes
