| Pylint is a Python source code analyzer which looks for programming errors, |
| helps enforcing a coding standard and sniffs for some code smells (as |
| defined in Martin Fowler's Refactoring book). Pylint can be seen as |
| another PyChecker since nearly all tests you can do with PyChecker can also |
| be done with Pylint. However, Pylint offers some more features, like |
| checking length of lines of code, checking if variable names are |
| well-formed according to your coding standard, or checking if declared |
| interfaces are truly implemented, and much more. Additionally, it is |
| possible to write plugins to add your own checks. |
