Re: [Numpy-discussion] Running doctests on buildbots

 The Buildbot configuration is kept on buildmaster.scipy.org, that
 won't help you.  It sends a request to the client for (something
 similar to) make build; make install; make test to be run.  The
 administrator of each slave has control over the Makefile itself, so
 we'll have to ask those individuals to fix the problem.

 I wonder how hard it would be to have simpler local makefiles that
 pull the build/install/test instructions out of svn after the update?
 That way we don't have to bother the slave maintainers whenever we
 want to tweak the build/test parameters.

 If I recall correctly, Python does something like this.  I could look
 into it if it seems worth doing.

We used to keep the build instructions in a central location, but it
turned out that many maintainers needed to modify the Makefile to do
machine-specific setups (setting up paths, mainly).  What we could do
is to leave the current make build in place, but to change the make
test step to be common to all.  We'd have to figure out which Python
binary to run because, again, it depends on the build-slave setup.

 I have not the slightest idea. Stéfan?

Sorry for the slow response, I'm still catching up.

I think if we turned on doctests right now, there would be about 100
test failures, so I've got plenty of my own catching up to do before
doctests really need to be enabled. ;)

[Numpy-discussion] Running doctests on buildbots

2008-06-30 Thread Alan McIntyre
Hi all,

It seems to me that the buildbots should be running the doctests in
addition to the unit tests, but right now the buildbot test command
numpy.test(level=,verbosity=) doesn't do that.  We could
either add doctests=True to the buildbot test command, or make
level above some threshhold run them (currently the level argument
is just ignored anyway).  Since the level and verbosity parameters are
going away in the release after 1.2, it seems more appropriate to just
add the doctests argument.  Any thoughts?

Thanks,
Alan

P.S. Thanks to whoever installed nose on the buildbots!

Add the doctests argument.
