Regina Python Test Suite
------------------------
This directory tree contains the test suite for Regina's python interface.
This test suite can be used to verify that Regina is operating correctly under
different compilers or on different platforms.
To build and run the test suite, type: make test ARGS=-V
This can be done from the top-level build directory, in which case it will run
all of Regina's test suites (the C++ engine, Python, and command-line utilities
tests).
The *.test scripts within this directory should, where possible, be written
to simultaneously work both as full scripts and also as line-by-line command
execution (simulating a human typing commands into a Python interpreter).
This puts extra requirements on the formatting and syntax; e.g.:
- blank lines must be added between successive indented blocks;
- blank lines within an indented block must include the indent also;
- return values should be assigned to dummy variables, not discarded
(which would create spurious output in line-by-line execution).
