Details

Tonight, two PyCon-destined speakers will rehearse their talks with us. Sponsored by Temporal.io. This is a great chance to see high-quality talks and provide feedback that will help the presenters.

Paul Ganssle: pytest for unittesters
Are you a `unittest` user interested to learn more about `pytest`? Do you want to learn to write more idiomatic `pytest` tests? Do you use neither and want an overview of some of the differences between the two frameworks? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then this talk is for you!

Esther Alter: Procedurally Generated Monsters! A complete example of Python game development
I made a procedurally-generated monster collecting game in Python that I released on itch.io and Steam. This talk is about how I made decisions over the course of nine months to ensure that development was fast, testing was robust, graphical effects were weird, and gameplay was fun.

Doors open at 6:15, and talks will start at 6:45. There will not be a recording, since the real talks at PyCon will be available later.
