Pants

:wave:! Sorry if this has been asked before, I wasn't able to find anything quite right while searching docs / Slack. Is there a good way to generate Python test targets with `batch_compatibility_tag` set inside of `tailor`, or should I do it post-hoc?

I wrote a libCST transformer to do this at first, and then realized I should ask if there's an easier way before shipping it :smile:

I don't think there's a way. There is <https://www.pantsbuild.org/2.19/reference/goals/tailor#alias_mapping> which lets you use a custom target type, which in your case could be a macro that sets that tag, but if you don't want a macro then post-hoc is probably the way to go.

Sounds good, thanks! Btw love the work you all have been doing on Pants 2. It's been a world of difference planning adoption for Pants vs. trying to do the same for Bazel.

Ultimately we'd like to get rid of trivial target boilerplate entirely. But we're not quite there yet.
