#pyATS v20.2 released! Notable changes: - py38 support - new dq! easy-dictionary query syntax - more Blitz! feature (yaml-based tests) - 20 new parsers (grand total: 1594) - 61 new apis - additional support for netconf/restconf/gnmi in Genie & a plethora of bug fixes and new bugs

Never thought there would be a book on #pyATS. Massive congrats to @John_Capobianco and @devnetdan for writing it! Congrats to the old and current pyATS team, what a journey it is! Have mine pre-ordered and will get it signed by John and the pyATS Team.

Here is the pre-order link! Big savings! I can't believe it's real

#pyATS usage in official #Ansible documentation!

#pyATS Dashboard: XPRESSO is now available for everyone! XPRESSO enables you to integrate everything #pyATS related into a nice web UI-based CICD system, managing your tests, testbeds, results, etc!

#pyATS v20.4 available today! - `pyats logs view` while your script is running - device clean/image loading, open-sourced! - 120 #JUNOS parsers - 700 #F5 parsers - Dq() baked into device.parse(), with #regex support - Blitz features: nxapi, gnmi - GNMI support ...

#pyATS v19.10 is available! New enhancements to log viewer support for browser configuration, non-localhost hosting; better testcase/step banner display, loads of new triggers, verifications, parsers and APIs! #Cisco #DevNet #NetDevOps #NetworkAutomation

Nearly 4 years of #pyATS on #DevNet for #NetDevOps - you have all taught us lots. This is the story of what we learned along the way : The pyATS DevNet Journey: Aspirations & Inspirations via @ciscodevnet

#pyATS v19.12 is now available! Testbed YAML now supports prompt/crypto markup throughout (no longer limited to just credentials). New in Genie: 18 parsers, 2 ops models, ACL enh., async connect to testbed by default, and a slew of other infra enh. see you ... in v20.1

Im always amazed how a few lines of python can be so powerful with the right libraries. Network automation really made easy. Add these to a pyats testcase and now you get full report / logviewer etc. great job! #pyats

Last night my man @networkbruh was having to configure a ton of interface descriptions via CDP neighbor info and was looking for an automated solution. Gave me an idea for my morning lab. Script executes and does the job in seconds. Feel free to use it :) #DevNet

hey @LearningatCisco and @CiscoDevNet community! I'm CCNP EI Now! Incredible the past few month! many #pyATS APIs, parser, CCNP, #CiscoChampion 03 times! Waw... @CiscoCommunity Spotlight Award... Do I deserve a congratulations! 😛😂😅😎

pyATS is a great (batteries included) framework for network testing. Here's an overview of the main pyATS components ... #networkautomation #cisco #pyats #genie

Finished recording and editing my #pycon2020 talk on Introduction to Writing Network Tests with #pyATS. It's rendering now so I can submit it to the team at @pycon Can't wait for it to post for watching! #netdevops

It's been an unbelievable experience writing my first @CiscoPress book with @John_Capobianco. I hope this book not only helps network engineers learn about #pyATS, but showcases how network testing can be a great start to their network automation journey. Network testing is often overlooked, but provides such a great value with low impact risk to the network! Thank you to everyone that has helped me during the writing process. I couldn't have done it without the great people at @pearson, especially @nancydavis! And yes, the coffee (and lemonade) flight was great! 😁

1/10 I've decided to move on from my role at Cisco, and pursue something different. It's been ~10 years of great adventures here, with #pyATS, the libraries Genie, and the execution system XPRESSO being crown jewels of what we build, and release to our customers.

Python is great for network automation, but #pyATS & Genie shell commands help network engineers ramp-up and be productive FAST! My latest blog is now available @ #Cisco #DevNet #NetDevOps #NetworkAutomation

dear #NetDevOps users, we heard you want the following features in #pyATS: 1. ansible inventory -> testbed.yaml 2. netbox -> testbed.haml what else? P.S. - it's coming...

the #pyATS development team launched an initiative internally to ramp up the # of ASA parsers in our library - to help network engineers/admins with keeping their Cisco ASAs running smoothly during the #COVID19 work-from-home rush. Stay tuned. #NetDevOps #DevNet #Cisco

I'm officially a #pyATS Genie contributor, my PR was just approved to merge in the offical repo 🤪 I promise to push something more productive next time 🤣 #devnet

Meetups have gone virtual, but that opens doors! Tomorrow I’ll be debuting my new talk “Intro to Writing Network Tests with #pyATS” @CLEpy and there is still time to register Get a preview of my @pycon recorded talk! #DevNet #NetDevOps #Python

Several people have been requesting I do "Hello World" video on pyATS | Genie (which is now called the pyATS Library, btw). So guess what I'm working on today?? #devnet #pyats #genie #cisco #ccna #ccnp #automation #python
