PyCharm is awesome. Use code PYTEST for 20% off at jetbrains.com/pycharm/.
It’s used exclusively for The Complete pytest Course
The community edition is all you need to run tests, but…
I love the pro edition and encourage you to try the Pro edition.
A few reasons I love PyCharm Professional:
- Integrated code coverage and profiling.
- Database Tools. I use it for a front end to my databases, PostgreSQL, mostly.
- It even helps you build up SQL queries. Super helpful.
- There’s a bunch of framework support for things like: Django, Flask, FastAPI, PyQT, Jupyter Notebooks. It also supports a bunch of js frameworks I maybe should use more but don’t yet.
- I even write this blog with PyCharm Pro, due to the excellent markdown preview feature, and the run config automatically sets up to launch a local hugo server.
- It’s one of the most reasonably priced professional tools I use.
- Even more so if you use code PYTEST for 20% off.
I encourage you to try the Pro edition.
