Python testing in Visual Studio Code. The Python extension supports testing with Python's built-in unittest framework as well as pytest. A little background on unit testing (If you're already familiar with unit testing, you can skip to the walkthroughs.) A unit is a specific piece of code to be tested, such as a function or a class. A Visual Studio Code extension with rich support for the Python language (for all actively supported versions of the language: 2.7, =3.5), including features such as IntelliSense, linting, debugging, code navigation, code formatting, Jupyter notebook support, refactoring, variable explorer, test explorer, snippets, and more! As I have Python installed on my computer and also installed the Python extension by VSCode, then I had Code Runner uninstalled. But I can't run Python scripts after that. It says 'command 'code-runner.run' not found'.

Introduction

I love Visual Studio Code, really – it’s the longest lasting fav thing I’ve had, like, for evah! … I used to hack on Sublime, but I deleted it last week (for evah) in favor of vs code … it's the business.

Anyway, my love for it aside – I was starting some R&D the other day using it, and couldn’t get the darn thing to play nice with the latest version of Python. Using V2, no hassle, but V3 … nope … and dig as I might, I couldn’t find what settings to change. I reached out to @code who sent me to the wiki that kinda helped, but not quite…

Configure VS Code for Python3

After a lot of poking around and going down rabbit holes, I found the solution, you need to tweak the tasks.json file to tell it to use Python V3.

To get to that file, in vscode (mac) cmd+shift+P – type ‘task’ – select ‘configure task runner’, and edit the file to point the “command” at “python3”, and the (command line) args to point at ${file}. Save, Debug/Run .. works! … now, back to coding. :)
