Extras

Brian:

  • Where did everyone go? - Ned Batchelder
    • I do feel like we’re more fragmented than before, but I am feeling like we have a community on Mastodon.
    • reminder that Mastodon has text search now
  • On Sunday, I released Ch9, Coverage, as part of The Complete pytest course, specifically part of pytest Working with Projects.
    • It was super fun. I’ve used coverage a lot since writing the book, for example, I demonstrate branch coverage. It’s so much more effective to teach in video than in printed screenshots.
