Test-Driven Development with Python

Test-Driven Development with Python

Reference: http://www.obeythetestinggoat.com/pages/book.html

Implementation

This implementation has a number of differences:

1. The development environment is hosted in a Docker container (compared to development environment on bare metal using virutal-env)
2. Depdencency management uses a Pipefile (instead of a requirements.txt)
3. Heroku is used as the deployment environment. There fore Chapters, 9, 10 and 11 have not been implemented.

make docker.build
make docker.up
make app.server # visit http://localhost:8000

tdd-with-python's Issues

Add a test watcher

Host assets on S3

Use a form builder

django-crispy-forms and django-floppyforms ?

Use Postgres as the development/test server
