Test codes for developers

ExoJAX has many test codes in ‘tests’ directory. We recommend to write the unit test code in ‘tests’ directory before pull-request and to perform the unit tests before your submission of the pull-request:

cd exojax
pytest tests

You might need some files.

• VALD data

You can download them from here, but see the following warning.

Warning

Note that if you use Windows or Mac, .gz might be unziped when downloading despite no renaming. I mean, the same name with .gz, but unziped! In this case, download extradata.tar and untar it.

Unit test using pytest

Before starting the unit test, install pytest:

pip install pytest

To test all of the unit tests, perform

cd exojax
pytest tests

or you can test one by one

cd tests/auto
pytest autoxs_test.py

Tests for the reverse modeling (retrieval)

The unit test is not appropriate for the reverse modeling because it takes a lot of time. For the tests of the reverse modeling, use code in ‘tests/reverse’ directory.

• reverse_lpf.py simple test for HMC-NUTS using LPF

• reverse_methane.py simple test for HMC-NUTS using MODIT

cd tests/reverse
python reverse_lpf.py
python reverse_methane.py
