Thank you for sharing! This looks really promising, I'll try to think of ways I can contribute to the project.

I use Cython a lot! But mostly to speed up existing Python code, and build C-extensions faster. I don't see it as a strict subset of Python or a new language to build a community around. Nuitka I just started experimenting with to buil

I've been tracking nim, and would agree it's the most promising so far! I feel though that it's trying to be too flexible in many ways. Examples of this include allowing multiple different garbage collectors and encouraging

More and more I want someone to create a new language that amounts to a strict subset of Python, with mypy built-in, and is compilable into machine code. Python has by far my favorite syntax, community, and in my experience leads to the gre

As an (unrelated to the Algorithm) Python developer, also named Tim, I've never been able to hear the last of it. Still a great algorithm, though!

Updated in latest release to use trailing underscore: https://timothycrosley.github.io/hypothesis-auto/CHANGELOG/ figured it would be the least painful the earlier I did it :)

Similar to parent I bet hard on Python in 2008. That means I've been writing Python for over 10 years. Sure, any programmer can pick up a new language, but I'm able to build (what I believe) are useful projects and release them in

I'd use it!

That's a great call! I'll update this to use trailing underscore in a later version

You are correct! Thanks for catching this! I'll fix the example later today

Yes! A smart one though, that limits itself to the type constraints you've specified to avoid redoing the work of your type checker.

It's an extension for hypothesis, and its value is 100% just convenience and accessibility. Really, it's meant to be a sort of gateway to doing full property-based testing, in the least barrier way possible. I wrote a bit more abo

While I agree, that `_param` generally means private, it is also a common way to allow parameters to be passed into a function where all other parameters are passed directly along via args and *kwargs to avoid naming collisions. An exampl

By default, the biggest value from this is catching unexpected runtime exceptions with certain values (the edge cases you don't think of yourself). To get the most value out of it, you can further specify what you expect from the resul

Hi @kburman, For cases like that it would be best combined with a mock: @auto_pytest() def test_add(test_case, mocker): mocker.patch('db.call') test_case() Note that this example utilizes the following pytest
