I got some feedback today from someone who said they were looking through the pythontesting.net/start-here page and were still a bit confused as to how to start testing.
I totally understand that and want to improve it. I want to make the site more friendly to people new to testing.
What info would help?

Test & Code is now at testandcode.com, so this episode is at testandcode.com/30.
M. Scott Ford is the founder and chief code whisperer at Corgibytes, a company focused on helping other companies with legacy code. We talk about the company, about testing strategy, getting a handle on technical debt and process debt, iterative development, and a lot more.
Topics include:
Raphael Pierzina wrote a cool article about how to run use a hook function to only run tests that use a particular fixture. However, I wanted to make it more generic so I could pass in the fixture via command line option. Minor tweak to add options.
The podcast has a new home.
I’m excited to announce that the Test & Code Podcast (the podcast formerly known as Python Test Podcast) is now on it’s spiffy new location, testandcode.com.
There is still work to do:
The workflow at the new site is much better for me and shaves some time off of the effort of publishing the podcast.
If you experience problems, let me know. Fastest way is through @brianokken.
I’ve also moved the feed over. This shouldn’t have any negative repercussions, but who knows.
