Manual:Pywikibot/Test coverage

To run coverage, install coverage, and optionally nose.

Library

edit

To use coverage as a standalone tool, run the following in the pywikibot clone directory:

$ coverage-2.7 run --source=python -m unittest discover -vv -p "*_tests.py"

(and look at results starting with 'pywikibot')

To use coverage via nose, see their documentation and run the following in the pywikibot clone directory:

$ nosetests --with-coverage --cover-package=pywikibot tests

Notes
  • the default output gives lines of code which are not exercised; that has been omitted from the table above.(they are included in the table for scripts)
  • the library contains lines which are Python 2.6 or Python 3+ specific, and cant be included in coverage when run from python 2.7
  • there are a few modules which are not included in this table because they are not loaded by the test suite.
  • PYWIKIBOT2_TEST_WRITE=1 was not used when generating the above statistics.

Scripts

edit

To use coverage as a standalone tool, run the following in the pywikibot clone directory:

$ coverage-2.7 run --source=python -m unittest discover -vv -p "*_tests.py"

(and look at results starting with 'scripts')

To use coverage via nose, see their documentation and run the following in the pywikibot clone directory:

$ nosetests --with-coverage --cover-package=scripts tests

(FIXME: both of the above commands is horribly inefficient, as it runs all tests, not just tests for scripts.)

Notes
  • the number of lines which are only exercised in Python 2.6 or Python 3+ should be so small as to not affect the overall results.
  • the TOTALs in this table are very misleading; there are many scripts which are not listed as they are tested in a way that is not visible to coverage.
  • there were no write tests covering scripts as at 1 November 2014.
