which seems had no new version since 2020 https://github.com/assertpy/assertpy/tags
If I'm trying to use correct assertpy does it make sense to use module which is not well maintained? 🤔
I have no idea about the status of it. I use it with great success in many projects both OS and professionally.
Once that type of library reaches maturity, you're not going to see very active work being done. Because what would that work entail?
With that said, I'm happy to discuss alternatives.
I'm not familiar about details of API which this module offers 😋 however on building its documentation I've noticed that it uses veeery old ``sphinxcontrib.napoleon which should be replaces by some modern module (sphinxcontrib.napoleon` was part os sphinx 3.x/4.x).
What about standard pytest assertions? 🤔 https://docs.pytest.org/en/7.1.x/how-to/assert.html

It's not nearly as rich as assertpy unfortunately.
Noticed that the author of assertpy hasn't made a single contribution to a single github project during 2023. This is obviously a bad sign. :(
