Want to make your code more reliable and easier to maintain? Writing tests is a crucial skill for any Python coder. In this workshop, you’ll learn the fundamentals of testing in Python, including how to write unit tests, use pytest, and implement test-driven development principles. We’ll cover best practices for writing effective tests and how to use testing tools to catch bugs.
Prerequisites: Participants should be familiar with Python at the level of the Python Fundamentals Bootcamp, another introductory Python workshop, or be a self-taught Python coder. Basic knowledge of Python functions and modules is required.
