Test's for numpy's numpy.linalg module.

Software Testing Project

Tests for numpy's numpy.linalg module.

Installation

• Make sure you have installed pip and your system's Python version is 2.7.x
• Install requirements by running pip install -r requirements.txt

Running Unit Tests

• Single module: python -m unittest tests.test_matrix_power
• Single test (within a module): python -m unittest tests.test_matrix_power.TestMatrixPower.test_matrix_squared
• All tests: python -m unittest discover

Running Coverage

• Run all tests (or any variation from above): coverage run --branch -m unittest discover
• Display report in command line: coverage report -m
• Build HTML page with report: coverage html
  • Note: I have ignored the entire /htmlcov dir from git in order to avoid unnecessary conflicts

Creating More Tests

• White-box test
  • Create a test module in tests/test_<method_name>.py
    • Make sure to import the method: from src.<module_name> import <method_name>
  • See ./tests/test_matrix_power.py and ./src/matrix_power.py for a setup example
• Black-box test
  • Create module for the method which will be tested in tests/test_<method_name>.py
  • Import method from numpy as from numpy.linalg import <method_name>
  • See ./tests/test_det.py for a setup example
