Sounds like a good idea. But in fact, this should probably be part of rktests.runRKTest[Suite]() to keep the tests themselves slim. Of course the follow up problem is that using relative paths to read in data files will not work for the import plugin tests, so weed need an additional function to locate the test-source directory. > i worked around most errors i could find. but i have no clue how to deal > with the errors i get by "import_spss" and "import_stata": It seems I was a bit too optimistic in including non-latin1 characters in these data files. Interestingly, both tests work fine for me. Probably it depends on which locales are installed on the system, but I did not find the time to investigate this, yet. Either way, the core of the problem is in read.spss() / read.dta(), not in our plugin code, so to some degree it is a false alarm. On the other hand, not being able to import these localized files is an issue, and we should try to improve on this, somehow. BTW, I see that read.spss() has gained a parameter "reencode" meanwhile, perhaps using this would help? > somebody please have a look at the "dotchart" test in "plots.R". i get an > error caused by the second plot call: > > <error> > Error in plot.xy(xy.coords(x, y), type = type, ...) : invalid plot type > </error> Looks like a genuine bug, but I don't understand where it is coming from. x <- table (datasets::warpbreaks[["tension"]]) dotchart (unclass (x)) # works dotchart (x) # fails Frankly, I don't understand, why.

It probably was. Hardcoded stuff tends to get outdated real fast... Regards Thomas
