  There's plenty of things which are only caught if actually run. I've certainly seen coworkers push code like: if case_that_im_not_going_to_bother_trying_to_test: obj.method_which_doesnt_exist()

      I rarely see code in python that I would both like to touch and that uses techniques of this sort.
