Unit testing is Period Jobs

You test for:
Automation allows

Interface: does it communicate well with other
Python has a systems?

Compatibility: does it work on all browsers and
module
devices?
Django has a

scenarios?
module, and
Testing and Deployment 1
, can also use Security: is app data secure, and users
Selenium protected?
Deployment is
installing a web Unit Testing
application on a
server, can be Testing a specific feature of your
static or dynamic application for a particular behaviour
Cron jobs are or assumption
regular, scheduled
jobs used to Automation of unit tests allows for tests to be
backup data rerun once application has been modified
regularly, send (continuous testing)
emails, update DB, Runs in memory so it doesn’t change your
etc. database
Precedes integration (interface) testing
‼️ Python has a unittest module to run unit
tests
Django has a django.test module to run
tests, which extends the Python unittest
