4. Speed Up Your Django TestsIf you spend ages waiting for CI runs to complete before you can merge, this is the book for you. It covers many useful ways to make your tests go brrrr, like measuring with profilers, activating parallelism, skipping unnecessary setup work, and using in-memory storage and cache backends.Some of the package information is a little bit out of date (targeting Django 3.2, 2021), but all the fundamentals still hold.#Django
