Python

While automation is important, end-to-end tests are prone to being slow and flaky. To fix this, we released Playwright in JavaScript earlier this year and have enabled thousands of developers and testers to be successful at end-to-end testing. Today, we’re bringing the same capabilities to Python.

Almost made it to bed at a reasonable time until a random search showed me this. I’d been glancing enviously at Playwright earlier this year. Configurable, cross-browser testing? Nice. Nicer than Selenium, anyways.

BRB rewriting all my browser tests.

So uh yeah. See I was stumbling my way through using sqlite-utils to collect site content metadata. Finally figured that out but then made the mistake of looking at that data through Datasette.

Okay not really a mistake. Helped me find a few dozen front matter typos. Simon Willison makes cool stuff.

Visual Studio Code doesn’t seem to pick up my environment’s PYTHONPATH when running pylint. Makes project-local modules a headache. The solution: put it in your pylint config.

[MASTER]
init-hook='import sys; sys.path.append("pylib")'

Okay, I got more planned for today than messing with code. Back to that other stuff.
