Update: 2024-04-24
Description
Property based testing can help you make your tests more effective and your code more robust. Together with my guests Duncan McGregor and Nicholas del Grosso we talk about what property based testing is and in particular go into one widely used implementation for Python - the Hypothesis library.
Here are a few links:
