From the Ground Up!
From textbooks to tents, our students got a behind-the-scenes look at a real event setup, understanding the "why" behind a real event venue and the entire setup from scratch.

They didn’t just see the stage come alive; they understood how every detail works behind the scenes. Because at GIEM, learning starts where the real action happens.

Hello everyone, I’m Andaç. 👋

I recently transitioned to Ubuntu and open-source ecosystems to explore technology with a more mindful and creative spirit.

I’m not a developer by trade, but I’m passionate about building simple, functional tools — open to everyone.

I believe in learning by doing, embracing mistakes, and growing one small step at a time.

Excited to learn from this community and share what I build along the way.

Continued thread

I finally got testing working the way I wanted it and it turns out, it did not take a lot of lines of code.

in my pytest.ini file, I set an env var with the file path to the sqlite database.

When the app runs, it checks that same env var and will default to the filename production.db if the env var is not set.

If the database name is the non-prod one, it will drop all the tables when the app launches.

The end result is that my test database is empty every time I run pytest and data that should persist in production.db will be preserved between app runs.
