Final Presentation Prompts

Mesh-querading Surveillance in the Information Age

The Red/Blue team you belong to will be responsible for creating the video demonstration as part of your presentation. Ensure that every team member participates in the production process.
Everyone in a team can contribute in different ways to the research. Make sure you are dividing the roles appropriately and are collating the data you want to present.
Draw upon and focus on the technical knowledge you are slowly going to gain over the duration of the workshop. Use these insights to add a layer to your understanding of the complex issues you are discussing.

Testimony: Bearing witness to your code's quality

Welcome to Testimony, the tool that holds a mirror up to our code and provides a platform for it to testify to its own correctness. We all write code we're not proud of, tucked away in private repositories, hoping it will never see the light of day. But with Testimony, you can bring that code out of the shadows and into the light of public scrutiny.

Testimony provides a simple and intuitive interface for testing Python functions and verifying their outputs against a set of input-output pairs. Simply define your test cases in a JSON file, and Testimony will automatically run your code against each one and report any failures.

With Testimony, you can be confident that your code is functioning as expected and producing the correct outputs for a variety of inputs. No more second-guessing or relying on manual testing – Testimony has got you covered.

So what are you waiting for? Let Testimony be your guide to writing better, more reliable code, and let your co
