PS: Yeah, the limit of 80 characters is being discussed in the pep8 draft, in particular: bugs.python.org/issue18472#msg193785 | |
| Nov 12, 2013 at 14:13 | comment | added | Alexander | Thank you, these are all valid points. I am currently working on implementing the suggestions. While I agree with PEP8 the 80 character limit is difficult as it requires splitting up many strings which make the code sometimes less readable. I looked into testing frameworks and went for nose, which seems easy to work with and already helped. | |

| Nov 11, 2013 at 12:01 | comment | added | Markon | I agree. If the OP is new to tests in general pytest is too much, but pytest is very powerful (it may include pep8, pylint, ...). | |

+1, but I'd recommend starting with unittest (which is built into Python) and looking at third-party software like pytest only if the built-in facilities prove inadequate in some way.
