Errors & debugging
Handle failures gracefully, raise helpful errors, and debug with confidence.
Collect Multiple Validation Errors in Python Before Raising
A chainable Validator class that accumulates all validation errors and raises them together in a single exception.
class ValidationError(Exception):
pass
class Validator:
def __init__(self):
self.errors = []
def validate_required(self, value, field_name):
if not value:
self.errors.append(f"{field_name} is required")
return self
def validate_email(self, email):

Implement circuit breaker open after failures demo in Python
A minimal CircuitBreaker class that calls a function and automatically 'opens' after a set number of consecutive failures, blocking further calls with a RuntimeError.
import time
from datetime import datetime
class CircuitBreaker:
def __init__(self, threshold=3):
self.threshold = threshold
self.failure_count = 0
self.is_open = False
def call(self, func, *args, **kwargs):
if self.is_open:
raise RuntimeError("Circuit is OPEN")
