Sessions
You might have heard of Hypothesis - a testing library which has been generating test inputs and finding bugs for eleven years now, and used by about 5% of all Python users (Pytest is about 50%). But have you seen the more advanced tricks?
- GASP as
hypothesis writegenerates the tests themselves! (without a language model) - THRILL at our new observability tooling - you'll never wonder what happened again!
- BRACE YOURSELF for a workflow with coverage-guided evolution, the black art of SMT solving, and a distributed database!
Come one, come all, and enjoy a live demo that you won't soon forget! With a little luck, you might even find something practical to take away for your own testing....
