Project Details

The VRS validation suite (in validation/) is a language-neutral set of tests intended to be used by any group that implements VRS. These tests are intended to be used by any implementation to ensure compliance. vrs-python also uses these tests.

This project aims to update tests, identify new tests, and address any coverage shortcomings in vrs-python.

Specific outcomes for this project:

• [ ] Write a test that identifies json schema classes that do not have tests and fails if non-empty.
• [ ] Review current tests and identify class-level gaps
• [ ] Identify other test updates as required
• [ ] Implement tests in the test yaml
• [ ] Implement tests in vrs-python
• [ ] Address any coverage gaps in vrs-python

Required and Desired Skills

• Python
• pytest
• yaml

VRS co-lead assessment. This proposal is well stated above in terms of identifying the benefits and outcomes. Any contributions to this would be directly beneficial to increasing adoption and improving the reliability and confidence in the VRS-python library.

@katiestahl can you put a 1-3 minute pitch on this topic to give at the start of the day to try to entice folks to join in on this? we are planning on having a cutoff of 4 people minimum to officially work as a group on a topic. Every topic lead will pitch.
