Top 20 Python testing tools
pytest, Hypothesis, Playwright, Locust, Faker and other tools for testing Python code
अपडेट · GitHub stars (stars)
ये 20 ही क्यों
Ranked by GitHub stars: how many developers bookmarked the project. Stars measure attention, not quality, so each row also shows forks, licence, the last push and the section of the community list it sits in. Test frameworks, browser automation, load testing, mocks and fake-data generators answer different needs and share one list, so the 'listed under' column says which kind each one is. Tools you use every day (pytest, coverage) often have fewer stars than browser tools that also serve scrapers.

कैसे मापा गया
Every project in the Testing section of the community list vinta/awesome-python on GitHub that has a public repository, ranked by GitHub stars from the GitHub API; archived repositories are left out. Refreshed every 6 hours. Selenium is left out: its repository is the whole multi-language Selenium project, so its stars aren't the Python bindings'. unittest.mock is part of Python itself and has no repository of its own.
