I had the great privilege to present this weekend at [PyCon Australia 2013](http://2013.pycon-au.org/). My talk was originally titled "Why I Use py.test and Maybe You Should Too" but as I wrote the paper and accompanying slides I realised that it should really have been called "How to Start Unit Testing" as that was really the key message from my talk. I've uploaded the [slides](/presentations/pyconau2013/why_I_use_pytest.pdf) and the [paper](/presentations/pyconau2013/why_I_use_pytest.html) I wrote to accompany them to the [presentations](/presentations) section of this site. Feedback and corrections are alway welcome. Thanks to the PyCon Australia committee, volunteers and delegates for another great conference.
