The video tutorial covers the process of adding and testing sorting functions, specifically Quicksort and Mergesort, in a Python script. It begins with importing and modifying the Quicksort function, followed by testing its functionality. The tutorial then demonstrates how to measure the execution time of the Quicksort function using Python's time module. After confirming Quicksort's performance, the video introduces the Mergesort function, detailing its implementation and testing. Finally, the tutorial identifies redundant code and plans to optimize it by creating functions.
