Hi Uk-Pythoneers!

*(with apologies to the wise ones amongst us who have chosen to live well
away from the Big Smoke)*

I'm involved in a couple of Python/TDD things in the next couple of weeks,
both free to attend:


Outside-In TDD and Test Isolation:
https://skillsmatter.com/meetups/6410-outside-in-tdd-and-test-isolation-how-to-use-the-pain-of-horrible-mocks-to-drive-better-design
(all about testing, isolation, mocking, and the pains thereof... it may to
provide some insight into the #TDDisDead / DHH controversy, if you've been
following that)

Introduction to TDD workshop with Andrea Crotti:
https://skillsmatter.com/meetups/6424-obey-the-testing-goat
(a gentle introduction to TDD with Django, for anyone that can't make it to
EuroPython this year)

Hope they're of interest!

PS Can I have a little moan about generator / list comprehension scoping in
Python 3?  I just ran into this:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11669379/undefined-global-in-list-generator-expression-using-python3-works-with-python2
-- so now I can't use variables from the enclosing scope inside my
comprehensions?  that sucks!  Doesn't it?
