    The testbook project is a different take on notebook unit testing. It allows you to refer to your notebooks in pure Python code from outside a notebook. This allows you to use any testing framework you like (for example, pytest, or unittest) in separate Python modules. You may have a situation where allowing users to modify and update notebook code is the best way to keep code updated and to allow for flexibility for end users. But you may prefer that the code still be tested and verified separately. Testbook makes this an option.
