What this snippet does

groupby clusters consecutive elements of an iterable sharing the same key.

Expected output

ERROR [('ERROR', 'db'), ('ERROR', 'api')]
INFO [('INFO', 'start')]

Why practise typing this

Typing itertools & functools code builds muscle memory for the symbols and indentation Python uses most, which prose-based typing tests never cover. DevType measures your words per minute and accuracy on this snippet and tracks the individual characters you mistype, so later lessons can target them.
