"TestScribe, a "low code/no code" testing tool" presented by Ray Yang

TestScribe is a "low code/no code" tool to make Python testing easier by automating the boring and repetitive parts. It allows you to quickly start an interactive testing/debugging session without having to write boilerplate code. As a bonus, you can save the session as a complete unit test for further debugging or regression testing.

Ray Yang is a Bay Area entrepreneur/creator.

"Hamilton: Natively bringing software engineering best practices to python data transformations" presented by Stefan Krawczyk

At Stitch Fix, a data science team’s feature generation process was causing them iteration & operational frustrations in delivering time-series forecasts for the business. It wasn’t the scale of data that was the problem, it was their code. In this talk I’ll present Hamilton, a novel open source Python framework that solved their pain points by changing their working paradigm.

Specifically, Hamilton enables a simpler and more productive approach for data science & data engineering teams to create, maintain, execute, and scale both the code (human) and computational sides of feature/data transforms. In this talk I’ll cover the motivation & backstory, what the Hamilton paradigm is and how it works, and how it naturally guides you into doing software best practices without really thinking about it.

Stefan Krawczyk is is currently CEO and co-founder of DAGWorks.

We are looking forward to seeing you!
