Tutorial: Writing tests that write themselves

Code and slides for my Hypothesis tutorial at PyCon Canada 2017. All dependencies needed are listed in requirements.txt. Was written for Python 2.7.12 but any version of 2.7 should work.

Quickstart

1. Make sure you have Python 2.7 and pip installed
2. Git clone this repo or download the zip file: https://github.com/dkua/hypothesis-tutorial/archive/master.zip
3. Once cloned or unzipped, go into the hypothesis-tutorial folder
4. Run pip install -r requirements.txt

Running the exercises

Inside of the hypothesis-tutorial folder:

pytest <exercise folder>

If you want to run with extra Hypothesis stats:

pytest --hypothesis-show-statistics <exercise folder>
