Looking for people who are using Hypothesis and are willing to say so

[David MacIver]

Hi there,

Author of Hypothesis here. (If you don't know what Hypothesis is, you're
probably not the target audience for this email but you should totally
check it out: https://hypothesis.readthedocs.org/ Unless you like spending
ages writing tests and still shipping buggy code).

I keep finding out about new people using Hypothesis who I've never heard
of. e.g. turns out that depending on how you count there are between two
and four talks about Hypothesis happening at Europython this year, and many
of them are from people I don't know.

On the one hand, it's great that people are using and excited about it! No
complaints from me there. I was bowled over when I realised about the
EuroPython talks.

On the other hand, it's really quite useful to have more visibility of
usage - both for me to have it and also for other people to see - it's a
much easier sell that people should start using it if they can see that
lots of other people are too.

SO, the point. If you are one of those people using Hypothesis, I'd really
like it if you would say so publicly.

The #1 best way for you to do this for me is to add your name and usage to
https://github.com/DRMacIver/hypothesis/blob/master/docs/endorsements.rst
so it will show up on the endorsements page at
http://hypothesis.readthedocs.org/en/latest/endorsements.html

I'm also thrilled that people are speaking at it, and would love more talks
and blog posts about it. Even tweeting enthusiastically about it is good
too.

Finally, if you are using Hypothesis but can't/don't want to speak about
doing so publicly because your company is doing super top secret stuff (or
any other reason), I'd really appreciate just a short email saying roughly
what sort of things you're using it for, maybe give me an idea of your
workflow. The other reason that I want to know who is using it is so I can
learn where it needs to improve and also help other people use it better
(I'm pretty sure some of the users of Hypothesis at this point have a
better idea how to deploy it than I do).

Regards and thanks,
David R. MacIver
