Talk - Using Pytest to Write Beautiful Tests and a Bulletproof Django Application

Learn how to make a bulletproof Django application by testing it with pytest. We’ll have an example project that you can run interactively during the talk. You’ll be led through the fundamentals of testing your Django application, going from basic unit tests to more complex situations of mocking out resources and testing full page rendering.

We’re going to touch on some more advanced topics as well, such as adding continuous integration (CI), parallelizing your test suite for faster run times, and adding coverage reports to your tests.
