The AppSignal for Python package includes a command-line tool that sends demonstration samples to AppSignal. When the tool is run, it sends an error and performance sample from your machine to AppSignal. This command-line tool is useful for testing AppSignal on a system and validating your local configuration. The same test is also run during installation when using the AppSignal installer. To learn more about how to use the demonstration command, visit the Debugging page.

​
Usage

To run the demonstration tool, run the following terminal command from your project’s root folder: 
python -m appsignal demo
