🎥 New Video Online – Rust in Paris 2025 🦀

At the latest edition of Rust in Paris, Guillaume Gomez @imperio explained how doctests work — from keeping code examples up-to-date to enabling tests you can’t easily write with unit tests.

Huge thanks to Guillaume for his contributions to Rust tooling and for showing us the hidden power of doctests 🙌

I just realized that #Django intentionally does not document how to use #doctests (they say so in the forums¹).

And I’m annoyed right now.

positive: they are wrong about doctests not being maintained in #Python: python 3.13 brings colored output for doctests:

https://docs.python.org/3/whatsnew/3.13.html#whatsnew313-doctest

I consider doctests to be one of the most elegant ways to test beautifully self-contained functions with easy to understand input.

Greetings dear #Rustlang community !

Right now I'm having issues with some #doctests on an Open-source project I want to contribute to, that are way too slow for what they do. It looks like the linkage or the execution can take more than 60 seconds, making them fail.

I am looking for a way to make them faster and thus, functional. Is there some common tips to help reaching this goal ?

Thank you in advance !! <3 #Rust
