Description

Our .pylintrc is out of date, but simply updating it generates a large breakage report. We need to update .pylintrc, while making any required changes.

Acceptance Criteria
  • Update .pylintrc, not manually, but according to the instructions at the top of the file
  • Run pylint --django-settings-module=credentials.settings.test --rcfile=pylintrc acceptance_tests credentials *.py
    to see the list of required changes.
  • Make all of the changes that are required.
  • Verify that functionality still works and the tests still pass.

Research direction

Start by reading the instructions at the top of .pylintrc, then run the specified pylint command against acceptance_tests, credentials, and *.py. Use its breakage report to identify the required changes, update the configuration accordingly, and verify that functionality and the test suite still pass.
