Both Yumeng and I are encountering the problem of not being able to run the executable properly, could it be something wrong when installing the dependency on Windows/Mac OS?

sree314 commented 7 months ago

I don't know what the exact error you're encountering is, but it is almost certainly related to how PATH operates.

(it should work on Mac though).

My suggestion is to find the path of the executable relative to the test script, and invoke it as "python stepcvt".

Asai-Yume commented 7 months ago

Yumeng is working on a Mac, and she ran into the same issue I did, in which stepcvt is installed under the ./python/scripts folder but not being recognized by PATH. For now I believe we could just manually do something like running "python ./path/to/scripts", but should we take a look at it tomorrow so that we could avoid adding the path everytime?

sree314 commented 7 months ago

Yes, we can look at it tomorrow. Note that the stepcvt script is in ../scripts/stepcvt which should be stable relative to the test file.
