How to modify tick label text with Python matplotlib?
To modify tick label text with Python matplotlib, we can call set_xticklabels.

fig, ax = plt.subplots()
fig.canvas.draw()
labels = [item.get_text() for item in ax.get_xticklabels()]
labels[1] = 'Testing'
ax.set_xticklabels(labels)
plt.show()
to create the labels with [item.get_text() for item in ax.get_xticklabels()].
Then we call ax.set_xticklabels to set labels as the label values for the x-axis.
