Testing for your Amazon Q Developer-built Python app
Expert testing for Python apps built with Amazon Q Developer. We audit Amazon Q Developer-generated Python code for testing issues. From $19.
Amazon Q Developer issues we find in Python projects
Problems specific to Amazon Q Developer's code generation patterns when building Python apps.
Overly permissive IAM policies generated with wildcard actions and resources
Amazon Q often generates IAM policies with `*` wildcards for actions or resources as a starting point, which violates the principle of least privilege. These policies should be scoped to specific actions and resource ARNs before being applied in production.
Lambda cold start latency not addressed in generated function configurations
Generated Lambda functions use default memory and timeout settings without considering cold start impact. Functions with heavy initialization code (loading models, establishing DB connections) need provisioned concurrency or memory tuning, which Amazon Q does not configure.
Generated CDK code creates AWS resources without cost estimation or tagging
Amazon Q CDK suggestions deploy resources without cost-tracking tags or budget guardrails, making it easy to inadvertently provision expensive resources (NAT gateways, multi-AZ RDS instances) without visibility into the cost impact.
Python testing issues we check for
Testing-specific Python problems that need attention before production.
Django debug mode in production
DEBUG=True left enabled in production, exposing stack traces, database queries, and configuration to attackers.
Missing CSRF protection
CSRF middleware disabled or bypassed for convenience, allowing cross-site request forgery attacks.
Insecure deserialization
Using pickle or yaml.load with untrusted data, enabling remote code execution.
