I have revised my opinion. Git is complicated partially because it has a bad UI, and partially because parallel universes with time travel. Mercurial, having parallel universes but lacking time travel, is significantly easier to master. A case may now be made that Git had a bad interface because it allows time travel. Time machines are notorious for terrible UI. Indeed, it is required by law in the state of California.

Suppose you want to write some unit tests in Python. What do? Fortunately, you already have a module called unittest (or unittest2 in Python 2.4-2.6) in the standard library. We’ll use that. Directory structure First, create a directory named tests. Place an empty file named init.py inside. This distinguishes the directory as a package. Next, create your first test file and place it in the tests directory. I called mine test_database.
