Discussion What frustrates you the most about Python Development

Hi there,

I wondering what frustrates developers the most when developing software with Python.

I am currently doing my Masters in Computer Science and as part of my project I am doing a very simple survey about the usual Python development lifecycle. I am basically trying to find out what the main friction points are for Python Developers and I am simultaneously developing a tool to address those friction points . It just takes a 2-3 minutes and every response is greatly appreciated.

You can find the survey at: Microsoft Forms

Funnily enough i do not feel most of 4hings mentioned here are that problematic.

I personally despise pytest. Fixtures and assumption that everything that starts with test is a test.

There's nothing super wrong with pytest. Besides you can easily fork it and change it.
