Requirements

NOTE: Currently only pre-release version in available.

Verification

You should not have to install pylint. Just open a python file and you should see problems (if they exist). Try this for example:

import re
import unittest


class TestSum(unittest.TestCase):
    def test_sum(self):
        self.assertEqual(sum([1, 2, 3]), 6, "Should be 6")

    def test_sum_tuple(self):
        self.assertEqual(sum((1, 2, 3)), 6, "Should be 6")


if __name__ == "__main__":
    unittest.main()
    print(x)

You should see problems, like this:

If you run into any problems, you should be able to see logs under Output > Pylint.
