entropy

An example of directory structure for testing

To run tests, you must first install the entropy package with pip. Use: pip install --no-deps -e .

(The option --no-deps tells pip not to install the dependencies, something we want to do because we manage our dependencies with conda, not pip. The option -e makes this an editable install so that if you change you don't have to reinstall to run the modified code.)

You can run the tests in the tests directory with: pytest

A few things to note:

1. It is important to have an installable package, with an __init__.py file in the package directory and a pyproject.toml.
2. You must install the package to be able to run the tests.
3. Both the test files and the test functions must start with test_ for pytest to find them.
4. In the tests_entropy.py file, do not use relative imports.
