Testing¶
This section describes the testing framework and options for testing MEGARA DRP
Running tests¶
MEGARA DRP uses py.test as its testing framework.
As MEGARA DRP does not contain C/Cython extensions, the tests can be run directly in the source code, as:
cd megaradrp-0.4.0
cd src
py.test megaradrp
Some of the tests rely on data downloaded from a server. These tests are skipped by default. To enable them run instead:
py.test --run-remote megaradrp
The reduction recipes are tested with remote data. Each recipe is run in
a directory created under the default $TMPDIR
, which is based on
the user temporal directory. The base of the created directories can be changed
with the option --basetemp=dir
:
py.test --basetemp=/home/spr/test100 --run-remote megaradrp
