We require 100% code coverage in our unit tests. You can run the tests locally
with tox
which ensures that all tests pass, tests provide complete code coverage,
documentation builds, and style guide are adhered to
tox
A subset of checks can also be ran by adding an argument to tox. The available arguments are:
- py37, py38, py39, py310, py311, py312, pypy3
- Run unit tests on the given python version
- mypy
- Run mypy type checking
- coverage
- Run a code coverage check
- docs
- Ensure documentation builds and there are no broken links
- style
- Ensure style guide is adhered to
tox -e py38
We also require features to be well documented. You can generate a local copy
of the documentation by going to the docs
directory and running:
make clean && make html && open _build/html/index.html
