LinkedIn announcement (draft)
I’ve released pytest-just v0.1.2.
Why this matters:
just is one of the cleanest ways to organise repeatable development and delivery tasks (test, lint, build, release) behind simple, memorable commands.
Instead of scattered scripts and tribal knowledge, teams get one visible task interface that is easier to onboard to, review, and maintain.
The challenge is that automation itself can drift quietly as projects change.
pytest-just is a pytest plugin that helps teams test justfile contracts early and reliably, without over-relying on full command execution.
In plain terms: it helps ensure your team’s shared task commands keep working as the project evolves.
What it supports: - recipe existence/dependency/parameter assertions - rendered command checks with just --show - safe smoke checks with just --dry-run - property-based verification for core invariants using Hypothesis
Built with: - uv for dependency management - ruff + ty for quality gates - GitHub Actions CI on PRs and main
If you use just in your workflow, I’d value feedback on what would make this most useful for your team.
