It turns out the the 'funny-looking' extensions near the top of some medieval plate armor chest pieces serve to block arrow heads deflected up off the chest toward the chin.) TLDR? Last paragraph is most pertinent. I read this, whilst still chortling at the opus @Chris had pen-ned about testing. Then one of the guys from my old unit rang. He was grumbling (even though Americans are typically less familiar with the British expression: grumpy, old men - it suits us). He wanted to know if we have been "infected" over here (we have), his complaint was about the rising fashion for "Singles Day", and "doesn't 11 and 11 mean either 22 or 4? So, what's 'single' about that?". Guess he has a point, how come 'they' didn't at least 'downgrade' to choosing 1/1? Some (other) significance to the numbers perhaps? Evidently Remembrance Day/Veterans' Day can have different meanings, as per "pen-testing". Similarly, an irony: the OP hasn't fronted to say whether (s)he has 'white hat' or 'black hat' ambitions; just as the contemplation of war and peace brings one to consider how the motives behind the possibility of single-selfishness today, contrast markedly from those of accepting the suffering and sacrifice which helped to make this world what it is. To distract from the above conversational tone, I mentioned the 'armor' deflection-pieces (there's probably a name for these, but we didn't use "armor" (I'm not THAT old) - nor did we have kevlar vests!). The laconic reply was that "No, but when you're the target of attack, we'd burrow-down attempting to hide behind the smallest pebble". Almost the same thing then? However, we're here to discuss Python: A 'security' colleague commented that there is a Linux distro/distribution, "Kali" (another name with opportunity for ambiguity!). Apparently, "Kali is designed for pen-testing - and there are likely many associated Python scripts, because Python is a language so well suited to fast-developing situations!". YMMV...

Try Googling python pentesting. That will give you some relevant links.

Anyone who uses a pen needs to test it. I think normal unittest should be sufficient to test your pen, though. Assert that, when you remove the cap, press it against paper, and sweep it through a line, that the paper then has a discolouration on it. Or test that when you open the gate in the pen, put an animal inside it, and then close the gate, that the animal is only able to move around within the pen. Either of these should count as pen-testing. Someone just has to write the Python scripts for it. Of course, if the OP is thinking of something entirely different, then perhaps it would help to have a lot more details about WHAT s/he is trying to test... and why.
