testsuit

Toolbox for preparing and analysing test data: load measurement files (CSV, TDMS, MDF, Dewesoft DXD, UDBF, HDF5, InfluxDB) into pandas, convert them to HDF5 or push them to a database, check results against YAML scenarios, and package test inputs into datapacks.

Installation

Python 3.10 or newer is required.

git clone https://github.com/laurentmldev/testsuit.git
cd testsuit
python -m venv .venv && source .venv/bin/activate   # Windows: .venv\Scripts\activate
pip install -e .

Optional features are installed as extras:

For example pip install -e ".[plotly,jupyter]".

To use testsuit without cloning it, install straight from GitHub (add @<tag> to pin a version):

pip install "testsuit[jupyter] @ git+https://github.com/laurentmldev/testsuit.git"

Jupyter GUIs

Three notebook GUIs come with the package: Data-Plot (browse and plot parameters), H5-Conv (convert data files to HDF5) and M-Exploit (run a scenario and view its report). Copy their starter notebooks into a working folder and open Jupyter there:

pip install "testsuit[jupyter]"          # or: pip install -e ".[jupyter]" from a clone
testsuit-notebooks ~/my_analysis --open  # copies data_plot, h5_convert and mexploit .ipynb

The notebooks only call runGUI() from the installed package, so upgrading testsuit upgrades the GUIs without copying the notebooks again (--force refreshes them). The GUIs need the classic notebook UI (jupyter nbclassic, what --open starts), and a desktop session for their file dialogs (tkinter).

Repository layout

src/testsuit/           the installable package
  datatools/            load data files into pandas, convert to HDF5, push to a DB
    DataFileMgrs/       one reader per file format (Csv, Tdms, Mdf, Dxd, Udbf, H5, InfluxDb)
    datapack/           datapack generation: dictionaries, includes, key replacement
  exploit/
    mexploit/           YAML scenario checks (corridors, sequences, computed params, plots) run through pytest
    runner/             runs mexploit over test sessions and builds HTML reports
  jupytertools/         ipywidgets GUIs for notebooks
  misc/                 logging, progress reporting, file helpers
  cli/                  command-line tools (see below)

  etc/                  input data, scenarios and configs used by the tests
  ref/                  reference outputs the tests compare against

Command-line tools

Installing the package puts these commands on your PATH. Each prints its full usage with --help, for example data2h5 --help. They can also be run as python -m testsuit.cli.<name>.

Using the library

from testsuit.datatools.datatoolbox import loadDataframeFromFile
from testsuit.exploit.mexploit.mexploit import mexploit

# run the checks of a scenario folder on a data folder, results written to out/
dfs = loadDataframeFromFile("tests/etc/data/csv/flags.csv", ".*")  # one DataFrame per parameter

rc = mexploit("tests/etc/mexploit/scenarii/mxp_OK_main_functions", "tests/etc/data", "out/", force=True)

The scenarios under tests/etc/mexploit/scenarii/ are working examples of every check type.

Running the tests

pip install -e ".[dev]"
pytest          # runs tests/*_t.py
ruff check .    # catches runtime errors such as undefined names

CI (.github/workflows/tests.yml) runs the same lint, the tests on Python 3.10 and 3.12, and a package build, on every pull request.

See CONTRIBUTING.md for how to add a file format, a mexploit check or a script, and how another library can register its own formats, criteria and report logo.
