I have over 12 years of experience in the ICT sector and previously held multiple positions in Zimbabwe and globally. I received a BSc (Hons.) in Computer Science from Midlands State University and an MSc in Strategic Management from Chinhoyi University.
Since 2015 I have focused on Python/Django development and have been very active in the community as a conference speaker, Django Girls Trustee, and member of the DSF’s Code of Conduct Committee. Since 2018 I have served on the DSF Board and held the position of Vice President (2019-2020) and currently President (2020-present).
I am the lead maintainer of the open source Django Girls repo where I write code, update documentation, review pull requests, and maintain the server. Recent work includes updating the project from Django 2.0 to 3.2 in stages and improving the layout.
In 2019, I worked for BriteCore where I wrote tests to increase the test coverage for the BriteCore software packages, developed internal tools and APIs and conducted research for the BriteCore platform. I also reviewed pull requests for my team members, contributed to internal documentation and attended to client tickets.
Projects I have worked on independently include an activity generator API that suggests activities one can do when they are bored; and an XML to HTML convertor that converts DMARC reports which are in XML format to HTML to make them human-readable. I am currently working on a library management system and a conveyances system for fun.
Pytest equivalent of
unittest.TestCase.assertTrue()
is
assert some_condition
.
For example
self.assertTrue(form.is_valid())
using pytest would be
assert form.is_valid()
.
