@nikhilwoodruff there is a way of using reforms in test file. Not yet included in the online documentation though :-( More details in this PR.
I would love to have the parametric changes available under the reform keyword !
Oh thanks @benjello - hadn't seen that. Yeah I think being able to have parameter changes under that reforms argument would encapsulate this.
Would this example work?
- name: De net a imposable pour individu à net à payer de 14700 TND
reforms:
- openfisca_tunisia.reforms.de_net_a_imposable.de_net_a_imposable
- parameters.tax.some_parameter:
year:2020:5: some_new_value
period: 2016-12
absolute_error_margin: 0.5
input:
salaire_net_a_payer: 14700 / 12
output:
salaire_imposable: 17710 / 12
Outline
In YAML files, as far as I know the only way to specify parametric reforms is with a Python module applying it. It could be useful to allow parameter overrides in the test, to avoid having to create lots of reform files to run tests with. We've just implemented this in
openfisca-us
by overriding the test script in OpenFisca-Core - could this feature benefit other models by being in Core? Happy to submit a PR if so.Here is data (or links to it) that might be useful:
