Opis kursu

Why tests?

Plenty of people write code. Some of them make it work and profitable. But sometimes, even the smartest of the best programmers makes a mistake that can cost millions of dollars. How to decrease the possibility of getting into such a fiasco? How do you ensure that you create a program that does exactly what you want? The very simple answer is: write tests!

Python testing basics

During this journey, you will learn the very basics of creating tests in Python. You will meet four types of software testing methods. You will create your own tests to check if the program or a data pipeline works as expected before it goes to production. Whether it is the unexpected null, a typo in your dataset, or mixed-up signs in the equation. You can, and you will catch those cases with the tests.

Testing with pytest and unittest

After the course completion, you will know the types of testing methods, and you will be able to choose the most suitable ones for a specific context. You also will be able to design those tests and implement them in Python using the `pytest` and the `unittest` libraries.

1

Creating Tests with pytest

Learn what a test is and how to run the first one of your own with the pytest library! You will get used to the pytest testing framework and the command-line interface. You will also learn how to process specific contexts, like "failed tests" and "skipping the test" with pytest markers.

Pytest Fixtures

Learn what a fixture is and how to simplify your code by using it in tests. You will get familiar with the fixture @pytest.fixture decorator and the fixture tools. You will analyze your code to see the "fixture part" in it. Finally, learn how to use teardowns to prevent software failures.

Basic Testing Types

Learn what the basic testing types are and their features. Learn about test cases and how they help to implement tests. You will get more skilled with creating test functions and running pytest from CLI in IDE exercises. Finally, you will be able to differentiate the different testing types and create tests for each of them.
