What is the best way to test Alexa Skills locally (Python)?
I'm developing Alexa skills in python and it's time wasting to go and deploy any minor code change to AWS Lambda using it's console or via AWS CLI and search for logs in CloudWatch .
I want to know what would be the least time consuming method to test any code change that I do locally without needing to deploy the code to AWS lambda .
Basically I want to test the lambda function locally .
python-3.x amazon-web-services aws-lambda

I know there are certain tools for JS like Bespoken , BST etc but I'm not sure how to use them with Python Lambda functions.
