Hmmm...if that is all you can remember about properties, then maybe you don't need them, many programs don't...even cool programs :-) I don't know of any good introductory material on properties but here are some starting points: http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.2/descrintro/#property http://docs.python.org/lib/built-in-funcs.html#l2h-57 > Also, I plan to use unittest to write my unit tests.

There are a few other unit test frameworks that are also popular but unittest and doctest are the only ones in the standard library.
