Unit Testing

Python Unit Testing

To run all the unit tests:

• Navigate to the OpenMEE base directory: git/OpenMEE

• run python -m unittest discover -v . "*_test.py"

• One may encounter issues with unittest + virtualenv. I have had success using unittest2, and specifying the particular module to be tested: python -m unittest2 python_to_R_test.py (these will run only those unit tests in python_to_R_test.py, which constitute those testing the Python-to-R bridge and hence cover the analyses implemented in OpenMEE.)

• To run a particular testcase: python -m unittest python_to_R_test.TestCaseToTest

R Unit Testing

We're using the testthat package for our R unit tests. You may need to install it.

To run the R unit tests

• Start R
• Enter the following R commands:
  • library(devtools)
  • setwd (directory where openmeer is, e.g., "/Users/idahabreh/git/OpenMEE/R/openmeer")
  • devtools::test()
