Well, TIL! I had no idea about the unittest module. I always see pytest used in Python projects.

  That is because unittest should be removed from the core libs. It is a bad copy of a Java library, pytest is far superior in every way. There is no reason to use unittest.

    Well there’s the reason that it avoids pulling in a dependency. Which arguably is not much considering all the benefits of pytest.

      If you are airgapped, you have other problems. They weren't really my target market.
