Note: as the pytests docs point out, the conftest.py
has to be either in the directory where pytest
is run or it has to be in the directory that is tested, e.g.
pytest gromacs/tests
will work with gromacs/tests/conftest.py
. This is the chosen setup and we use exactly the above line for Travis CI.
NOTE: When testing locally, use something like
cd GromacsWrapper
pytest --low-performance --disable-warnings --cov=gromacs gromacs/tests
(Under Python 2, pytest-xdist works and one can use -n 4
but under Python 3 it appears to be broken.)
In PR #102 we are adding the option to restrict
mdrun
to two threads with thepytest --low-performance
option. That uses external code from ianmkenney/pytest-gmx but this code is not pip-installable so this can be inconvenient for users who want to use it.CHECK: Do the tests run locally without pytest-gmx
Following https://docs.pytest.org/en/latest/writing_plugins.html we can bundle the pytest plugin with our tests. It's only ~10 lines of code https://github.com/ianmkenney/pytest-gmx/blob/master/pytest_gmx.py so this should be easy.
