I’m working on a project that needs lots of toolbars on screen at once, even though not all of them will be used at the same time. So, I’m modelling this ‘foldable’ dock widget after what I remember Photoshop panels used to be like.

It’s a work in progress, but would like to hear constructive suggestions.

    ternary expressions

    Recommend against the ternary expression. coverage might not detect the two code blocks. Would also not be able to apply # pragma: no cover comment to a code block that isn’t important enough to justify testing it. Often use do nothing code blocks.

    self.float_button.setIcon(self.icon_dock if is_floating else self.icon_float) lets say while testing something goes wrong and trying to debug what happened.

    Will not see the value that gets past into self.float_button.setIcon

    I like your idea of having the param be keyword only. Makes it more readable.

      If you branch coverage tool can’t handle branches on the same line I would suggest you use a different one! Does it handle if foo or bar?

      Will not see the value that gets past into self.float_button.setIcon

      Uhm, yes you will? Just step into the function.

        self.float_button.setIcon is a Python wrapper around a C++ library. Might not be possible to, or want to, step into the function.

        if foo or bar is part of a if-else condition. The else portion needs # pragma: no cover or coverage may complain.
