Project for Systematic Testing of Gregorio

You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License along with this program. If not, see http://www.gnu.org/licenses/.

Repository Alignment

Each branch on this repository should correspond to the matching branch (i.e. the one with the same name) in the main repository. That is, all the tests should pass when run against that branch with TeX Live 2020. Thus all new development in the main repository should create a corresponding branch here. The exception to this is a branch which should not break any existing test and requires no new tests. In this instance, it's acceptable to simply indicate that all tests on the develop (or ctan) branch here should pass.

Supplemental Fonts

The gabc-output/bar-substitution.gabc test makes use of gregorio.ttf and thus will fail if the supplemental fonts are not installed.

Running the test suite

Use ./gregorio-test.sh to run the full test suite with default options. Pass the name(s) of desired tests to run those tests specifically. Pass the -h option to get a summary of available options.

gregorio-test.sh will read a gregorio-test.rc file, if it exists, to set up some features such as color. Please read the gregorio-test.sh file itself for more information. See example.gregorio-test.rc for an example.

Test Types

This project provides a harness for repeatable testing of Gregorio. Tests should be placed in one of the tests, longtests, or backwards directories, within the proper subdirectory depending on type.

Tests in the tests directory and backwards directory are run normally. Tests in the longtests directory are only run when the -L flag is passed to gregorio-test.sh.

The following test types are supported:

gabc-gtex

This test runs gregorio against each gabc file in this directory to produce a GregorioTeX file and compares it with an expected output file.

Requirements:

  • Every gabc file must have a corresponding "expected" tex file.

Notes:

The first two lines are stripped from the "expected" tex file as well as from the file produced by running gregorio during the test before the comparison.

gabc-dump

This test runs gregorio against each gabc file in this directory to produce an text dump file and compares it with an expected output file.

Requirements:

  • Every gabc file must have a corresponding "expected" dump file.

gabc-gabc

This test runs gregorio against each gabc file in this directory to produce a gabc file (as interpreted by gregorio) and compares it with an expected output file (with a .exp extension).

Requirements:

  • Every gabc file must have a corresponding "expected" gabc file (with a .exp extension).

gabc-output

This test creates a simple TeX driver file which invokes \includescore on each gabc file in this directory in order to compile it and produce a PDF, which is then compared with an expected PDF file.

Requirements:

  • Every gabc file must have a corresponding "expected" PDF file.

Notes:

The gabc file may be accompanied by a preamble file which can inject additional TeX settings for processing. If provided, the preamble file must be the gabc base filename with -preamble.tex appended. For example, the preamble file for mytest.gabc should be named mytest-preamble.tex.

The PDFs are compared by first converting the pages to PNG files with imagemagick's convert and then compared using imagemagick's compare and the AE metric.

tex-output

This test runs lualatex on every tex file in this directory in order to compile it and produce a PDF, which is then compared with an expected PDF file. It is recommended, due to the nature of this test, that each test be in a separate subdirectory. Unless necessary for a particular test, use the provided Alegreya fonts for rendering.

Requirements:

  • Every tex file must have a corresponding "expected" PDF file.
  • All other files needed by the tex file (i.e., gabc files) must also be included.
  • Use of the provided Alegreya fonts is recommended.
  • Filenames for the test must not have the format gap-*.tex. Files with this naming pattern are assumed to be space configuration files, not independent tests.

Notes:

The PDFs are compared by first converting the pages to PNG files with imagemagick's convert and then compared using imagemagick's compare and the AE metric.

plain-tex

The plain TeX version of tex-output. This test runs luatex on every tex file in this directory in order to compile it and produce a PDF, which is then compared with an expected PDF file. It is recommended, due to the nature of this test, that each test be in a separate subdirectory. Unless necessary for a particular test, use the provided Alegreya fonts for rendering.

Requirements:

  • Every tex file must have a corresponding "expected" PDF file.
  • All other files needed by the tex file (i.e., gabc files) must also be included.
  • Use of the provided Alegreya fonts is recommended.

Notes:

The PDFs are compared by first converting the pages to PNG files with imagemagick's convert and then compared using imagemagick's compare and the AE metric.

scripted

This test runs every shell script (.sh extension) in this directory and passes the test if the script exits with a 0 return code. This places the responsibility for checking for success on the script itself. These tests have no "expected" files and the results may not be viewed by using gregorio-test.sh.

Requirements:

  • Each shell script should check for success and exit with the 0 return code if the test is successful.

Tests for backwards compatibility (deprecated features)

Tests that are under the backwards top-level directory should test that deprecated features are working correctly. They should be named with _B before the extension of the filename (or -preamble.tex for such files). This naming convention causes gregorio-test.sh to allow deprecated usage so that deprecated features may be tested correctly.

Tests for things that should fail

If a test is in a directory named should-fail somewhere underneath the test type directory, gregorio-test.sh will run the test as usual, but assert that the test fails to compile the test document. Should compilation fail, the test will pass.

Creating "Expected" Files

For a new test:

  1. Run ./gregorio-test.sh -n {subdirectory/under/tests}
  2. Run ./gregorio-test.sh -a {subdirectory/under/tests}

For an existing test, where the new output is deemed to be correct.

  1. Run ./gregorio-test.sh -a {subdirectory/under/tests}

Software Requirements

  • Bash
  • Imagemagick
  • Gregorio
  • TeX Live

Developer Notes

Each kind of test must have seven functions defined in harness.sh, prefixed by a common prefix:

  • find
  • test
  • accept
  • view_log
  • view_diff
  • view_expected
  • view_output

Be sure to pass the prefix to the register function after declaring the new functions.

All tests contributed must be licensed under GPLv3 with the "or later" option.

Put comments in test cases to describe what they test. They are free-form for now, but start the comment with %issue: to give the GitHub issue number and with %notes: to summarize the test case. Such magic comments may be harvested in the future.
