Maintaining the Script Test System

This page describes some common tasks for maintaining the script test system.

Add/Remove Bugs

Add bugs to failing tests

Every test that is listed as failing should have a bug ID listed next to it, like so:

CbParams_Neptune1_2Body (script) [diff 0.000741045, tol 0.0001] [GMT-361]

In this example, the components are:

  • CbParams_Neptune1_2Body - test name

  • (script) - run mode (e.g. script, save, function)

  • [diff 0.000741045, tol 0.0001] - failure message

  • [GMT-361] - bug ID

If a test is failing and does not have a bug ID associated with it, add it with the tcfile utility:

>> tcfile('Cases', {'casename'}, 'AddBugs', {'GMT-####'}); 

You can add multiple bugs or multiple cases this way:

>> tcfile('Cases', {'case1', 'case2', 'case3'}, 'AddBugs', {'GMT-####', 'GMT-####'});
Remove bugs from passing tests

If a test is passing and still has a bug ID associated with it, the test will appear in the Test System Warnings section. These tests need to be untagged:

 >> tcfile('Cases', {'casename'}, 'RemoveBugs', {'GMT-####'});

You can remove multiple bugs from multiple cases this way:

>> tcfile('Cases', {'case1', 'case2', 'case3'}, 'RemoveBugs', {'GMT-####', 'GMT-####'});
