It provides utilities for setting up test fixtures, managing application context, and making assertions on HTTP responses specific to web applications.\n\nThe package is designed to reduce boilerplate when writing tests for Flask apps. However, it has been abandoned since its last release in 2020-12-24, with no active maintenance or updates to support newer Flask or Python versions. Most modern Flask projects now rely on pytest and pytest-flask, or Flask's native testing support, making this package largely superseded.","worth_installing":"No. The package is abandoned (last release 2020-12-24) and compatibility with current Flask and Python versions is uncertain. Modern Flask projects should use pytest-flask or Flask's native testing tools instead. Only consider installing if maintaining a legacy codebase that already depends on it."},"id":"flask-testing","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/flask-testing","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/flask-testing.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/flask-testing/"},"maintenance":{"status":"abandoned"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2020-12-24","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"Flask-Testing","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"Unit testing for Flask"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":676785,"position":5382,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.8.1"}
