Running tests locally#

Tests are implemented with pytest, so use one of:

pytest --pyargs pywt -v

There are also older doctests that can be run by performing the following from the root of the project source.

python pywt/tests/test_doc.py
cd doc
make doctest

Additionally the examples in the demo subfolder can be checked by running:

python util/refguide_check.py

Note: doctests require Matplotlib in addition to the usual dependencies.

Running tests with Tox#

There’s also a config file for running tests with Tox (pip install tox). For example, to run tests for Python 3.10, Python 3.11, and 3.12, use

tox -e py310,py311,py312

For more information see the Tox documentation.
