PyCharm can parse certain standardized test files, with the ability to run/debug a single test function by "left click" + "run/debug test" on the source code, this is comfortable when a developer has just made an edit but a test is failing, and he is trying to examine why the test is failing. I mean, you put a breakpoint by a mouse click, then you run the test in debug mode by clicking on the same location where the breakpoint lies, that's a killer feature. Consider the potentiality for new users, maybe with little experience in SymPy or git. They would be able to learn how to run a test instantly, without any need to read SymPy's documentation. Git is really easy to use inside PyCharm. Furthermore, I suggest that PyCharm be advised to new users having little experience with git. You just open SymPy's folder and it works. If you use Eclipse+PyDev it still needs some configuring, let alone integrate Git and Github into Eclipse. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sympy" group.
