You can test the package using either pytest or tox.

6.1. Test with pytest#

codecov-devel

The package can be tested by running several test scripts, which test all sub-packages and examples.

Clone the source code from the repository and install the required test packages by

git clone https://github.com/ameli/imate.git
cd imate
python -m pip install -r tests/requirements.txt
python -m pip install .

To automatically run all tests, use pytest which is installed by the above commands.

mv imate imate-do-not-import
pytest

Attention

To properly run pytest, rename /imate/imate directory as shown in the above code. This makes pytest to properly import imate from the installed location, not from the source code directory.

  1. Clone the source code from the repository:

    git clone https://github.com/ameli/imate.git

  2. Install tox:

    python -m pip install tox
