30. Python unit testing frameworks: Nose, Pytest 2015-02-13

    tags: code, coverage, feature, nose, programming/python, programming/python/pytest, programming/testing, quality, unit

    [ permalink ]

    Python's built-in unittest module is quite cool, but a bit limited and way too verbose (read: it's quite not easy to incite developers to write unit tests)

    I'm currently looking for more dev-friendly solutions, the key points being:

    • writing test code should be easy and straight-forward -keep the focus on "what to test" instead of "how to transcribe a process to a test"
    • parallelization! -we, spoiled developers, should make good use of our way-too-many-cores build machines...
    • complete feature set!
      • we don't want to just run tests...
      • coverage reports (find dead/weak/untested code sections)
      • output formatting (JUnit-XML seems to be quite a common format out there)

    There seem to be 3 solutions in Python:

    • stock unittest + project-dependent customizations / test helpers
    • nosetests
    • py.test

    And 2 ways of gettings things done:

    • keeping things stock: no external dependency, project-specific implementation...
    • using a test framework: one more module in your (test) virtualenv, more concise tests, more features (// run, code coverage, etc.)

32. Un discours en musique : Sarkozy / Satie 2014-11-28

    tags: erik, instrument/piano, politics, sarkozy, satie

    [ permalink ]

    Combinaison de morceaux choisis d'un discours bien léché, à la gestuelle animée, et d'une bande son riche en émotions. Il est à la fois intéressant et cocasse de voir à quel point la musique et la gestuelle influent sur la perception du message...

    [EN] Combination of selected pieces of a well-rehearsed political speech/interview, featuring wide gestures, and emotion-rich music. It's both interesting and surprising to see how the background music genre, coupled to the spokesperson's gestures, can alter or reinforce the essence of the speech...

    Classic Disney animated films. Now with Grumpy Cat!

    This series features well known Disney films with the Internet's most famous grouchy feline in place of one of the characters.
