Pytest fixture extending Numpy's allclose function
Project description
pytest-allclose
pytest-allclose provides the ~.allclose Pytest fixture, extending numpy.allclose with test-specific features.
A core feature of the ~.allclose fixture is that the tolerances for tests can be configured externally. This allows different repositories to share the same tests, but use different tolerances. See the “Configuration” section below for details.
Installation
To use this fixture, install with
pip install pytest-allclose
Usage
The ~.allclose fixture is used just like numpy.allclose.
import numpy as np
def test_close(allclose):
x = np.linspace(-1, 1)
y = x + 0.001
assert allclose(y, x, atol=0.002)
assert not allclose(y, x, atol=0.0005)
assert not allclose(y, x, rtol=0.002)
Additional arguments
The ~.allclose fixture has a number of arguments that are not part of numpy.allclose. One such argument is xtol, which allows arrays that have been shifted along their first axis by a certain number of steps to be considered close.
import numpy as np
def test_close(allclose):
x = np.linspace(-1, 1)
assert allclose(x[1:], x[:-1], xtol=1)
assert allclose(x[3:], x[:-3], xtol=3)
assert not allclose(x[3:], x[:-3], xtol=1)
Refer to the ~.allclose API reference for all additional arguments.
RMSE error reporting
The ~.allclose fixture stores root-mean-square error values, which can be reported in the pytest terminal summary. To do so, put the following in your conftest.py file.
from pytest_allclose import report_rmses
def pytest_terminal_summary(terminalreporter):
report_rmses(terminalreporter)
See the ~.report_rmses API reference for more information.
Configuration
allclose_tolerances
allclose_tolerances accepts a list of test name patterns, followed by values for any of the ~.allclose parameters. These values will override any values provided within the test function itself, allowing multiple repositories to use the same test suite, but with different tolerances.
allclose_tolerances =
test_file.py:test_function atol=0.3 # set atol for specific test
test_file.py:test_func* rtol=0.2 # set rtol for tests matching wildcard
test_file.py:* atol=0.1 rtol=0.3 # set both tols for all tests in file
test_*tion rtol=0.2 # set rtol for all matching tests in any file
test_function[True] atol=0.1 # set atol only for one parametrization
The only special character recognized in these patterns is the wildcard character *, which matches any group of zero or more characters.
If the test is parametrized, then a pattern like test_name[param0-param1] will match specific parameter settings, and test_name* will match all parameter settings. Note that the latter will match any test that starts with test_name.
If a test has multiple ~.allclose calls, you can use multiple tolerance lines that match the same test to set different values for the first, second, third, etc. calls. If there are more ~.allclose calls than tolerance lines, the last tolerance line will be used for all remaining ~.allclose calls.
Example test file:
def test_close(allclose):
x = np.linspace(-1, 1)
y = x + 0.001
assert allclose(y, x)
assert not allclose(y, x)
Example configuration file (pytest.ini, setup.cfg):
allclose_tolerances =
test_close atol=0.002 # affects first allclose call
test_close atol=0.0005 # affects second allclose call
See the full documentation for the API reference.
