This is the sign-up form for the Byte-sized RSE session on Property-based Testing with Python. The event will be hosted online via Zoom on Friday 19th April 2024, 13:00-14:30 BST / 14:00-15:30 CEST. The Zoom link will be emailed to registered participants shortly before the session.
This session will look Property-based Testing using Python. This is a form of automated testing that applies a range of values to key properties to try and identify failure cases in your code. For a much more detailed discussion of what property based testing is (and isn't!), take a look at this article:

Session prerequisites
You’ll need Python installed on your computer and be able to install new Python
libraries with the "pip" package management tool. We’ll install new packages into a virtual
environment so you won’t require admin access if you have Python, pip and
"venv" available. We also recommend that you some basic familiarity with
writing tests in Python via Python’s unittest framework, pytest or a
similar testing library. Finally, you’ll also need to have Git installed since we’ll
be cloning an example repository from GitHub which will contain some initial
content for the interactive exercises.
