| 31 | 31 | The following code will give you a basic idea of how to add unit tests to your module in !SciPy. Suppose you have a module {{{scipy/stats/foo.py}}} that has a function sum(a) that should accept a 1-D array or a scalar value. Create a test module called {{{scipy/stats/tests/test_foo.py}}}. This test file should include a class that tests {{{sum()}}} and a couple of other functions, {{{test_suite()}}} and {{{test()}}}. The test class has test methods that test various aspects of {{{sum()}}}. Within these test methods, {{{assert()}}} is used to test whether some case is true. If the assert fails, the test fails. Again, see here for more detailed info on defining test classes. The {{{test_suite()}}} function combines all the test classes that live in this module together to form a test suite that can be used for testing. The {{{test()}}} function actually runs the test suite. This file should look something like this: |
