### Solo Python moderno { #just-modern-python }

Todo está basado en declaraciones estándar de **tipos en Python** (gracias a Pydantic). Sin nueva sintaxis que aprender. Solo Python moderno estándar.

Si necesitas un repaso de 2 minutos sobre cómo usar tipos en Python (aunque no uses FastAPI), revisa el tutorial corto: [Tipos en Python](python-types.md).

Escribes Python estándar con tipos:

```Python
from datetime import date

        assertThrows(
            TimeoutException.class, () -> service.startAsync().awaitRunning(1, MILLISECONDS));
    assertThat(e)
        .hasMessageThat()
        .isEqualTo("Timed out waiting for Foo [STARTING] to reach the RUNNING state.");
  }

  private class FakeService extends AbstractExecutionThreadService implements TearDown {

    private final ExecutorService executor = newSingleThreadExecutor();

    FakeService() {

If you didn't sign off your commits before creating the pull request, you can fix that after the fact.

To sign off a single commit:

`git commit --amend --signoff`

To sign off one or multiple commits:

`git rebase --signoff origin/master`

Then force push your branch:

`git push --force origin test-branch`
