7.2.3 Deliverables

This project has the following deliverables:

  • A requirements-dev.txt file that identifies the tools used, usually jupyterlab==3.5.3.

  • Documentation in the docs folder.

  • Unit tests for any new changes to the modules in use.

  • Any new application modules with code to be used by the inspection notebook.

  • A notebook to inspect the attributes that appear to have ordinal or nominal data.

The project directory structure suggested in Chapter 1, Project Zero: A Template for Other Projects mentions a notebooks directory. See List of deliverables for some more information. For this project, the notebook directory is needed.

We’ll look at a few of these deliverables in a little more detail.
