DESCRIPTION:QGIS plugins are powerful tools that extend the functionality o
 f the QGIS ecosystem. However\, many plugins lack essential development pr
 actices that ensure maintainability\, scalability\, and long-term usabilit
 y. A survey of the top 20 most downloaded QGIS plugins revealed that only 
 three had an established test suite\, highlighting a gap in quality assura
 nce across the ecosystem.\n\nIn this session\, we will walk through best p
 ractices for modern QGIS plugin development\, drawing from our work on the
  QGIS Earth Engine Plugin. We will cover:\n	•	The current state of QGIS 
 plugin development – insights from our landscape analysis\n	•	Building
  a test suite – why it’s essential and how to get started\n	•	Contin
 uous integration (CI) – setting up automated testing and validation\n	
 •	Proper packaging & distribution – ensuring your plugin is easy to in
 stall and update\n	•	Static typing & maintainability – making your plu
 gin more robust and readable\n	•	And more!\n\nBy the end of this session
 \, attendees will have a practical roadmap for improving code quality\, te
 sting\, and deployment in their own QGIS plugins. Whether you’re buildin
 g a new plugin or maintaining an existing one\, these best practices will 
 help ensure your plugin is scalable\, maintainable\, and future-proof.
