We may need to write tests to check it properly for any new update.

I don't know how to... but yea I'm interested to know how to write one.

I saw the test. But can someone please explain the concept behind it. There's a random bunch of assertions in the test_main.py file. How does that help for all the possibilities that can occur. Any pointers to good documentation?

The current implementation of tests uses the python standard library's unit tests, I think we should implement them in a mature and widely used library like pytest which is easier to understand and focuses more on the tests rather than the boilerplate syntax.

If anyone can give me a green light ( @joe733 @athul ), I'll be more than happy to put a PR with complete tests in pytest.

Here, take a look at pytest documentation
