Testing¶
Phatch uses two strategies for testing:
- acceptance testing for all possible image processing pipelines
- unit tests by doctests
Acceptance testing¶
The acceptance testing uses the images inside the tests/input
folder. To get all options for image acceptance testing, run this command from the tests
folder:
python acceptance_test.py --help
Here are some examples, choose one of the two listed commands ...
To run all tests use:
python acceptance_test.py --all python acceptance_test.py -a
To run only the library tests use:
python acceptance_test.py --tag=library python acceptance_test.py -t library
To run only tests with a certain tag use:
python acceptance_test.py --tag=tag_name python acceptance_test.py -t tag_name
To test only one action:
python acceptance_test.py --select=action_name python acceptance_test.py -s action_name
Doctests¶
We chose for doctests as it saves time by being both unit tests and documentation. Please add doctests to the code you contribute.
Run the doctests inside the tests
folder:
python doc_test.py
This will automatically also be run by the bzr precommit hook.
