Python Testing Tutorial for Beginners

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ GITHUB CODE TO FOLLOW ALONG ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ DESCRIPTION ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
In this video I walk through the basics of testing in Python. I cover how to setup your tests; how to install pytest; how to write your tests and finally how to run your tests.

Learning to test your Python code is super important! It is a vital skill and can save you a lot of pain if you spend the time.

It may sound boring, but tests keep the world in check. They help us diagnose issues, understand things and prevent failure.

Tests are also not just a ‘software’ thing. They are used in so many industries across the world: Chemistry has a Litmus test; Medicine have blood tests; Electricians have a socket test; Banking has a stress test.

When you’re writing code, you want to be confident that it is doing what you think it is. This is why we test.
