Hypothesis ========== `Hypothesis `_ is a library that allows you to write tests that are parameterised from a source of examples. It then generates simple and understandable examples that can be used to make your tests fail and find bugs with little effort. #. Install Hypothesis: .. tab:: Linux/macOS .. code-block:: console $ python -m pip install hypothesis .. tab:: Windows .. code-block:: ps1con C:> python -m pip install hypothesis Alternatively, Hypothesis can also be installed with extensions, for example: .. tab:: Linux/macOS .. code-block:: console $ python -m pip install hypothesis[numpy,pandas] .. tab:: Windows .. code-block:: ps1con C:> python -m pip install hypothesis[numpy,pandas] #.
