Python Tool Integrations

Autoformatters

Tool	Used Here?	Description	Invocation	Notes

docformatter (docs)	Yes,>=1.7	Formatting docstrings	pre-commit hook
nb-clean	Yes,>=2.4	Cleaning Jupyter Notebooks	pre-commit hook	Paired with black[jupyter], this makes PRs with Jupyter Notebooks easier to read.

Testing

Tool	Used Here?	Description	Invocation	Notes
pytest (docs)	Yes	Test runner	Command line
pytest-xdist (docs)	Yes	Test runner parallelism via multiprocessing	pytest plugin
pytest-timer	Yes	Timing tests	pytest plugin	Use the colorama extra for colored output.
pytest-sugar	Yes	User-friendly pytest output	pytest plugin
pytest-subtests	Yes	Supporting subtesting	pytest plugin	Will be deprecated after pytest-dev/pytests-subtests#71.
pytest-rerunfailures	No	Easy decorator pytest.mark.flaky for flaky tests	pytest plugin	A third party alternative is flaky.
pytest-timeout	No	Terminate long-running tests	pytest plugin	Useful when there's unsolved race conditions.
pytest-recording	No	Cache HTTP requests as cassettes	pytest plugin	Maintained successor to pytest-vcr.

Linters

Tool	Used Here?	Description	Invocation	Notes
pylint (docs)	Yes, >=3	Static analysis	Command line	Since pylint is slow, pairing with the ruff partial reimplementation will ensure that pylint runs are more effective.
ruff (docs)	Yes,>=0.6	Static analysis	pre-commit hook mirror	Partially reimplements many other tools like flake8 and pylint.
refurb (docs)	Yes,>=2	Static analysis	Command line	refurb development outpaces its ruff reimplementation.
flake8 (docs)	Yes	Static analysis	pre-commit hook	Pair with Flake8-pyproject for configuration in pyproject.toml. Mostly reimplemented by ruff, but still useful for partially reimplemented or not yet reimplemented plugins.
pydoclint (docs)	Yes	Checking docstrings	flake8 plugin	pydoclint was created in response to a stalled ruff reimplementation.

Type Checking

Tool	Used Here?	Description	Invocation	Notes

typeguard (docs)	Yes	Runtime type checking	pytest plugin (built into typeguard), with --typeguard-packages=mypackage command line argument
beartype (docs)	No	Runtime type checking	pytest plugin pytest-beartype, with beartype_packages = "mypackage" configured	As of Feb. 20th in 2024, Python 3.10's typing.TypeAlias was unsupported.

pip-compile from pip-tools (docs)	No, >=7.4.0	Requirements compilation	Command line
flake8-requirements	Yes	Checking requirements	flake8 plugin (CI only)	If invoking flake8 as part of pre-commit, run this only in CI because this check isn't relevant for most commits.
pipdeptree	No	Auditing requirements	Command line	Alternative to uv tree.

Packaging

Tool	Used Here?	Description	Invocation	Notes
validate-pyproject (docs)	Yes	Validating pyproject.toml configuration(s)	pre-commit hook	By specifying validate-pyproject-schema-store in additional_dependencies, configurations for mypy, ruff, uv, etc. will also be validated.
