Courtesy note to just maintainer (draft)
Hi Casey,
I wanted to share a small ecosystem project I’ve released: pytest-just (https://github.com/DataBooth/pytest-just).
It is a pytest plugin focused on testing justfile contracts by leaning on:
just --dump --dump-format jsonjust --showjust --dry-run(for non-shebang smoke checks)
The goal is to help teams catch recipe drift and contract breakage earlier in CI without replacing full integration tests.
If you have a moment, I’d really welcome any feedback on:
- assumptions this tool makes about stable
justoutput contracts - edge cases I should account for in the JSON/show flows
- anything that would make this more useful and less surprising for
justusers
Thanks for building and maintaining just — it has been excellent to work with.
