IndyDevDan | I'm DONE writing tests - using AI copilot AIDER to AUTOMATE testing. @indydevdan | Uploaded August 2023 | Updated October 2024, 2 hours ago.
Testing your code is great, AND IT SUCKS. It can be insanely time consuming since you have to rewrite, mock, and patch code over and over. Even with testing fixtures new code brings new functions, classes, and modules and that means more mocking. What if there was a way to automate the hard part of writing tests? Or even all of it?
In this video, we walk you through a simple Python app designed to write to and read from a Notion page and database. But here's where things get exciting: instead of the traditional (time sucking) testing methods, we use GPT powered, AI coding assistant AIDER for test automation on our Notion Python module. Ever wondered how efficient AI can be in catching and correcting errors? You're in for a treat as we showcase how, with the /run command, AIDER not only identifies errors but also self-corrects them in the tests 🤯🤯🤯.
In our deep dive, you'll see how you can use AIDER with pytest while building the principles and techniques to use AI coding copilots with any testing framework out there, be it jest, vitest, or others. So, whether you're an Front-End engineer, prompt engineer, a passionate Python developer, or just curious about the future of AI engineering, this video has something for every coder. Join us in exploring the next frontier in app development and testing! Don't forget to sub for more cutting-edge content.
