⏰ Only a week remaining with early-bird pricing for my annual three-day deep dive into #pytest with #Python Academy!
📅 March 4th — 6th
🌍 Leipzig (Germany) or remote
📕 Three days of pytest knowledge from one of its core maintainers.

#pytest trick: Want to patch a function returning a different value on every call, without full unittest.mock?
values = iter(["eggs", "bacon", "spam"])
monkeypatch.setattr(random, "choice", lambda: next(values))
assert random.choice() == "eggs"
assert random.choice() == "bacon"
Oh, looks like @jetbrains/@ThePSF sneakily released the #Python developers survey 2022 results at some point!
The first thing I look at is always how testing frameworks changed compared to the year before😅 #pytest up from 50% → 51%, "None" down from 38% → 35%. Yay!
Almost 3 years after #pytest-xvfb 2.0.0, I released v3.0.0 today! Other than packaging/formatting/typing/Python version updates, this release hopefully fixes a long-standing "XIO: fatal IO error 0 (Success)" issue, and adds support for using Xephyr/Xvnc. github.com/The-Compiler/p…
Blast from the past: My #pytest training from 7 years ago (mostly inherited by @hpk42) vs. now. Currently working on another big "rewrite", trying to introduce one big case study example (a small RPN calculator) instead of isolated examples for most of the code/exercises.
#pytest 7.3 was released just at the beginning of the easter weekend, it brings multiple enhancements around tmppath retention and output details, but beware we learned of a windows only perf regression thats now under investigation
My 3-day in-depth #pytest training (remote) will start in a week, and there are still spaces available! python-academy.com/courses/python…
I'm afraid my pytest training for #PyConDE was not accepted, and I won't make it to #PyConIT this year. Planning to propose it for #Europython though!
Update on my in-depth #pytest training with @pyacademy: We decided to go remote-only as we only had one on-site signup. March 7th to 9th, still spaces available! python-academy.com/courses/python…
My @PyConDE training is still in review, hoping to share more information there soon too!
Two weeks until early-bird pricing ends for my #pytest training with @pyacademy: March 7th to 9th 2023, both on-site in Leipzig 🇩🇪 *and* remote, three days full of knowledge from a pytest core maintainer! python-academy.com/courses/python…
I submitted a (shorter) training to @PyConDE too!
PSA: #pytest users can safely ignore CVE-2022-42969 / github.com/advisories/GHS… in its py dep.
The reported DoS "vulnerability" is in pylib's 18 year old SVN handling (py.path.svn*), which is not used in pytest, nor anywhere else to our knowledge.
Details: github.com/pytest-dev/py/…
