5. No functionality must be removed to achieve this goal
6. All tests must be valid and truly test the code base
7. The tests must be placed in the equivalent folder under tests/switchmap_ therefore:
   1. a file named switchmap/x/y/z/file.py must have a test file named tests/switchmap_/x/y/z/test_file.py
   2. file tests/switchmap_/x/y/z/test_file.py must have 755 permissions so it can be easily executable

@palisadoes hey I have minimal knowledge of python but yeah I feel I can do it, please assign it to me.

[Cioppolo14]

@Ramneet04 Our policy is to assign no more than two issues to each contributor across all repositories. This way everyone gets a chance to participate in the projects. We sometimes give exceptions for more urgent cases and sometimes we lose track, but the policy stands. You have reached your limit, please wait until your existing issues are closed before requesting more issues. You could unassign yourself from one of the other issues too.
