thanks for working on this

why not use the example from #50906? for regression tests, if the original example is small and self-contained, it'd probably be safer to just use that directly
the rest looks good though 👍


df2 = DataFrame(
{
"idx1": Categorical(["a", "a", "a"]),
"idx2": Categorical(["a", "b", "b"]),
"data2": [1, 2, 3],
}
).set_index(["idx1", "idx2"])

for how in ["inner", "outer", "left", "right"]:

Could you use pytest.mark.parameterize for this?

Yes, of course. Added parametrize to this commit

df = df1.join(df2, how=how)

Could you name this result and compare to an expected DataFrame. This will compare the types as well

Thank you @mroeschke. I corrected the test as you suggested.

assert is_categorical_dtype(df.index.levels[0]) is True
assert is_categorical_dtype(df.index.levels[1]) is True
