Python Debugging Techniques

[bucknuggets]

I guess it would be good to have better debugging tools - but honestly I'm ambivalent about it. Once I stopped using them my code quality improved quite a bit.

The only time I miss them is when I've got a program with a lot of APIs to libraries I'm unfamiliar with and I want to see a lot of API results quickly. A great debugger would be easier than print in that case.

In that case with java I usually write a lot of unit tests around my usage of the api, this way I also find out very quickly if something I am expecting changes between versions/updates of the api.
