In this mini-course you will demonstrate what you’ve learned in the Python Basics* course and apply your Python skills to a real-world project for your final assignment. You will be introduced to unit testing and will develop the skills needed to create functions and unit tests, run the unit tests, and package the files in a standard Python Package.

Hands-on labs provide practical application of the project work you’ll be performing in the Peer-graded Final Assignment.

At the end of this project, you will have the skills to test your Python code, build and run unit tests, and package the Python application for distribution.
