Advanced Django Presentation from Simon Willison

Just crossed Red­dit, it’s right here — I don’t think poor Titus will ever live down the quote from the last pycon:

“I don’t do test dri­ven devel­op­ment. I do stu­pid­ity dri­ven test­ing… I wait until I do some­thing stu­pid, and then write tests to avoid doing it again.” — Titus Brown

There’s a lot of django-testing infor­ma­tion in the slides. Also, new­forms is cov­ered. I’m still try­ing to wrap my head around new­forms for a knowl­edge base sys­tem I am try­ing to write on my free time in django44.

Take a look at the pre­sen­ta­tion. I <3 django.4

    Yeah, I was at the back of the room when he said that. I had missed almost the entire pre­sen­ta­tion and just caught the Q&A at the end, but that quote alone makes Titus’ talk one of the most mem­o­rable talks at PyCon for me (behind Jacob’s Django talk and Jim’s Iron­Python talk).
