When you install Python, you might be asked if you want to update the `PATH` environment variable.

//// tab | Linux, macOS

Let's say you install Python and it ends up in a directory `/opt/custompython/bin`.

If you say yes to update the `PATH` environment variable, then the installer will add `/opt/custompython/bin` to the `PATH` environment variable.

It could look like this:

```plaintext

        if (to instanceof WildcardType) {
          return; // Okay to say Foo is <?>
        }
        // Can't map from a raw class to anything other than itself or a wildcard.
        // You can't say "assuming String is Integer".
        // And we don't support "assuming String is T"; user has to say "assuming T is String".

  `Exactly so,' said Alice.

  `Then you should say what you mean,' the March Hare went on.

  `I do,' Alice hastily replied; `at least--at least I mean what
I say--that's the same thing, you know.'

  `Not the same thing a bit!' said the Hatter.  `You might just
as well say that "I see what I eat" is the same thing as "I eat
what I see"!'

  `You might just as well say,' added the March Hare, `that "I

  `Exactly so,' said Alice.

* `http://localhost`
* `https://localhost`
* `http://localhost:8080`

Even if they are all in `localhost`, they use different protocols or ports, so, they are different "origins".

## Steps { #steps }

So, let's say you have a frontend running in your browser at `http://localhost:8080`, and its JavaScript is trying to communicate with a backend running at `http://localhost` (because we don't specify a port, the browser will assume the default port `80`).

## An example file structure { #an-example-file-structure }

Let's say you have a file structure like this:

```
.
├── app
│   ├── __init__.py
│   ├── main.py
│   ├── dependencies.py
│   └── routers
│   │   ├── __init__.py
│   │   ├── items.py
│   │   └── users.py

	// the kernel is arbitrarily okay with < 248 bytes. That
	// matches what the docs above say:
	// "When using an API to create a directory, the specified
	// path cannot be so long that you cannot append an 8.3 file
	// name (that is, the directory name cannot exceed MAX_PATH
	// minus 12)." Since MAX_PATH is 260, 260 - 12 = 248.
	//
	// The MSDN docs appear to say that a normal path that is 248 bytes long

In a real application, you probably would have your tests in a different file.

And your **FastAPI** application might also be composed of several files/modules, etc.

### **FastAPI** app file { #fastapi-app-file }

Let's say you have a file structure as described in [Bigger Applications](bigger-applications.md):

```
.
├── app
│   ├── __init__.py
│   └── main.py
```

In the file `main.py` you have your **FastAPI** app:

@SuppressWarnings("JUnit4ClassUsedInJUnit3")
public class CollectionSerializationEqualTester<E> extends AbstractCollectionTester<E> {
  @CollectionFeature.Require(SERIALIZABLE)
  /*
   * As the class docs say, this test only makes sense for collections that define equals().
   * Accordingly, our testing framework adds it only when testing an implementation of List, Set, or
   * Multiset.
