the occasional occurrence

I gave a brief presentation on SimpleParse at the ClePy meeting last night.

The presentation slides and a few example files are available on my site.

Matt Wilson shared some cool stuff about IPython and twill.

IPython seems like one of those apps where you can always learn one more time-saving trick. I learned a few more last night even though I use it every day.

I’ve never used twill and I’m still not super-compelled to do so. It seems like testing with something like Selenium will pick up on any errors that twill might catch (and more since it uses a real browser). The one advantage that I am sure twill has over Selenium is speed. I guess it might fit in there between library-level unit tests and high-level tests like those using Selenium.
