When committing, ``pre-commit`` will re-format the files if necessary.

#. If instead of using ``tox`` you prefer to run the tests directly, then we suggest to create a virtual environment and use
an editable install with the ``testing`` extra::

$ python3 -m venv .venv
$ source .venv/bin/activate # Linux
$ .venv/Scripts/activate.bat # Windows
$ pip install -e ".[testing]"

Afterwards, you can edit the files and run pytest normally::

$ pytest testing/test_config.py


#. Commit and push once your tests pass and you are happy with your change(s)::

$ git commit -a -m "<commit message>"
