No TDD possible with nbval about nbval HOT 5 CLOSED

My view is that nbval is more a way to check that examples are not broken, rather than a replacement for traditional unit tests.

You could, of course, write a notebook using the public API of a module that doesn't exist yet, ignoring any output, and write the module, using nbval to see when the notebook runs without errors. But that approach doesn't seem terribly practical.

Hi @michaelaye, thanks for the comments and input.

I am also interested in realising TDD with Jupyter. I started to put an example together at https://github.com/fangohr/tdd-with-jupyter ; maybe that is of interest.

Any comments and new ideas welcome :)

Best wishes,

Hans

Sorry, off-topic but:
Hallo Hans und MoinMoin!
Hamburger Jung, wa? ;) Ich komm aus Heide/Holstein, war immer gerne in Hamburg. Jetzt in Colorado. Hoffe es regnet nicht noch mehr in Southhampton als in Hamburg! ;)

Hi Michael and moinmoin, too :) Yes, weather in Southampton is significantly warmer, and also less rainy. Or at least no prolonged periods of rain; compared to Hamburg.
