I had a look. Interesting idea for sure. A few things though : - the github page should clarify that these tests are intended to go in the actual source code, rather than in the test code. Also, whether the inline tests are merely empty functions when not hit via pytest. - the github page should mention some important aspect like the performance hit as discussed in the article that the page links to, and further clarify how this is achieved (because for me, performance was one of my 2 primany concerns). I'm a little skeptical that it is that low because function calls in Python are relatively expensive.... but I'm happy to be proven wrong. Eg should one be aware that the hit of the article is per test line.... so putting an inline test in a small loop could result in a measurable hit, etc? - the top-level api, ie `Here()`, needs to be renamed to clarify to would-be readers of the source code that this is inline test code that is not run when not reached via pytest. Eg I recommend `itest`, short, easy to write, explicit.
