Ultimately, your unit test, which is located in tests/test_greeter.py, should look like this:

def test_greeter(chain):
greeter, _ = chain.provider.get_or_deploy_contract('Greeter')

greeting = greeter.functions.greet().call()
assert greeting == b'Hello'


def test_custom_greeting(chain):
greeter, _ = chain.provider.get_or_deploy_contract('Greeter')

set_txn_hash = greeter.functions.setGreeting(b'Guten Tag').transact()
chain.wait.for_receipt(set_txn_hash)

greeting = greeter.functions.greet().call()
assert greeting == b'Guten Tag...
