What it does
The pytest testing framework helps you write tests quickly and keep them readable and maintainable—with no boilerplate code. Using a robust yet simple fixture model, it’s just as easy to write small tests with pytest as it is to scale up to complex functional testing for applications, packages, and libraries. This book shows you how.

Leaping – Debug Python tests instantly with an LLM debugger2024 · github.com · ▲120Hi HN! We’re Adrien and Kanav. We met at our previous job, where we spent about a third of our lives combating a constant firehose of bugs. In the hope of reducing this pain for others in the future, we’re working on automating debugging. We’re currently working on a platform that ingests logs and then automatically reproduces, root causes and ultimately fixes production bugs as they happen. You can see some of our work on this here - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39528087 As we were building the root-cause phase of our automated debugger, we realized that we developed…
A modular Python TUI framework with a fast and pretty markup language2022 · github.com · ▲114PyTermGUI is a highly modular framework offering most of the features one would expect from a GUI library, such as a mature and open Widget API, animations, mouse support and other goodies, right inside the terminal! The markup language is another great feature of the library, and is used by practically all elements of it. It is based on Rich's implementation, but uses a more concise and easier to humanly parse syntax, while being over 10 times faster at parsing due to a long list of optimizations. There is a full Window Manager API included as well, allowing the user to move, resize and…

We built a tool for fast-forwarding 95% of tests (MIT)2022 · github.com · ▲8Hi, we are working on a tool for speeding up test runs, by skipping tests unaffected by code changes. Effectivly, Saving 80-95% of the time, by skipping 80-95% of tests. We started a few months ago, and have managed to get into a few production CI systems. All our prospects and users are on holiday right now. So we decided to repackage and open-source for local test running. available here (https://github.com/nabaz-io/nabaz) under MIT license. One line change: pytest -v -> nabaz test --cmdline "pytest -v" Stalk us on GitHub, or just Star us. Ask questions, we'll answer in…

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
