The latest updates on all JetBrains products and topics
JetBrains IDEs have a lot that’s “integrated” into the “development environment.” At some times, it seems daunting: there’s an infinity of features, with useful new things to learn at every corner. At other times, though, there’s something missing, something unique to what you do or how you do it. …
Update: Joachim has made a repo available with the contents he will show in the webinar. PyCharm comes with a lot of functionality, yet perhaps something you'd like is missing. Luckily it's made to be enhanced by plugins to be suitable for a much wider range of users. This webinar with noted Inte…
Last Thursday we had a special webinar in our Munich offices with Oliver Bestwalter, talking about tox and release automation. The recording is now available. Many thanks to Oliver for covering quite a lot of material with a good audience in just over an hour. I found the webinar very valuable: lot…

Python has long distinguished itself with a culture of testing. In the last decade, two libraries have combined to give powerful testing in isolation -- pytest and tox. The latter combines easily with pytest to give you a clean environment across test runs, including across multiple versions of Pyth…
What’s something you do all the time in Python? Import modules from packages. Not just that, you also fiddle with the formatting to make the style nannies happy. And remove unused imports. And bunches of other janitorial tasks. Let PyCharm be your janitor. PyCharm has tons of support to take over…
Python's tox project is a critical tool for quality software production. Most of our users and customers know about it, but haven't made the time to learn it. This webinar's for you. Oliver Bestwalter is one of the maintainers of tox, and as he discussed in a recent Test and Code interview, has m…
Last week we published a blog post on the new pytest fixture support in PyCharm 2018.2. This feature was a big part of the 2018.2 work and proved to be a hit. But it wasn’t the only notable pytest work: 2018.2 also delivered support for behavior testing with pytest-bdd, a project that provides behav…
Python has long had a culture of testing and pytest has emerged as the clear favorite for testing frameworks. PyCharm has long had very good “visual testing” features, including good support for pytest. One place we were weak: pytest “fixtures”, a wonderful feature that streamlines test setup. PyCha…
We're now in our fourth installment of a pretty big 2018.2 Early Access Program cycle. Lots to take a look at by downloading EAP 4 from our website. New in PyCharm 2018.2 EAP 4 Pipenv support We know many of you have been waiting for this for a long time, so here you go: Pipenv is supported in Py…

Python’s combination of power and simplicity has long been one of its key selling points. This includes its data model. Luciano Ramalho, who is our guest presenter for the next webinar, recently wrote about this in Fluent Python, an O’Reilly book widely considered one of the best recent books on Pyt…
