Robot specific parameters or tests #6

Closed lornat75 closed 6 years ago

lornat75 commented 9 years ago

Different robots either real or simulated (ODE or gazebo) have different functionality. Even in case in which functionalities are the same, tests may need different parameters (thresholds, speeds etc).

https://github.com/robotology/robot-testing/pull/5 addresses how to propagate variables from the main configuration file to individual test files. This is for sure useful to propagate the name of the robot as a prefix for port names.

At the moment using the environment functionality (https://github.com/robotology/robot-testing/pull/5) we can use different configuration files (test-ode.ini/test-gazebo.ini)

I wonder if in the end we will need to build different directories/contexts, i.e.:

app/iCubSim --> test ode simulator app/icub --> test real robot app/icubGazeboSim --> gazebo simulator

I'll keep the simplest solution (different configuration files) as long as it is suitable.

traversaro commented 9 years ago

Probably we will need different directories for totally different robots (coman, double_pendulum ).
