Test integration report

[!NOTE] For the latest implementation status, please refer to Functional Implementation Status (Remaining Functionality).

Creation date: 2025-01-15 Status: ✅ Completed

overview

We have integrated the testing and validation scripts for the entire EvoSpikeNet project into the standard tests/ directory structure. This allows us to take advantage of pytest's auto-discovery features, which greatly improves test execution and maintenance.

Moved files

1. From root directory

  • verify_plan_d.py → tests/verification/verify_plan_d.py
  • test_chrono_status.py → tests/verification/test_chrono_status.py

2. From the scripts/ directory

  • test_vision_fix.py → tests/verification/test_vision_fix.py
  • verify_packages.py → tests/verification/verify_packages.py
  • verify_training_data_sufficiency.py → tests/verification/verify_training_data_sufficiency.py
  • run_light_tests.py → tests/verification/run_light_tests.py
  • run_module_smoke_tests.py → tests/verification/run_module_smoke_tests.py
  • generate_system_test_report.py → tools/generate_system_test_report.py (report generation tool)
  • migrate_test_data.py → tools/migrate_test_data.py (data migration tool)

3. From rag-system/test/

  • test_rag.py → tests/unit/test_rag_system.py
  • test_rag_improvement.py → tests/unit/test_rag_improvement.py
  • Delete rag-system/test/ directory

4. From evospikenet/

  • scalability_test.py → tests/performance/test_scalability.py

5. From examples/

  • test_rag_improvement.py → tests/unit/test_rag_improvement_example.py

Statistics

  • Total Python test files: 206 pieces
  • Unit tests: 122
  • Integration test: 23 pieces
  • Performance Test: 2 pieces
  • Verification script: 7 pieces

Test execution shell script

The following shell scripts are left in the scripts/ directory to simplify test execution:

  • scripts/run_rag_tests.sh - RAG test execution script
  • scripts/run_tests_cpu.sh - CPU version test execution
  • scripts/run_tests_gpu.sh - GPU version test execution
  • run_patent_tests.sh (root) - Patent test execution

How to run the test

Run all tests```bash

pytest tests/ -v 

### Run by category```bash
# unit test
pytest tests/unit/ -v

# Integration test
pytest tests/integration/ -v

# Performance tests (including slow tests)
pytest tests/performance/ -v -m slow

# Plan D related tests
pytest tests/unit/test_brain_language_comprehensive.py -v
pytest tests/integration/test_brain_language_integration.py -v
pytest tests/performance/test_brain_language_performance.py -v

Run with marker```bash

Skip slow tests

pytest tests/ -v -m "not slow"

Specific markers only

pytest tests/ -v -m brain_language 

## Dependencies

The following packages are required to run the tests:

```bash
# Basic test dependencies
pip install pytest pytest-cov pytest-asyncio pytest-timeout

# EvoSpikeNet dependencies
pip install torch snntorch torchaudio numpy scipy

# Performance test additional dependencies
pip install psutil memory_profiler

verification

Syntax check

Verified that all test files compile without Python syntax errors:

find tests/ -name "*.py" -exec python3 -m py_compile {} \;

Import path

Import paths for moved files are properly handled with the following pattern:

import sys
import os
sys.path.append(os.path.abspath(os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), "..")))

Improvements

Before test directory integration

  • Test files are spread across multiple directories
  • pytest autodetection not working
  • Difficult to test and maintain
  • Measuring test coverage is complicated

After test directory integration

  • ✅ All tests are consolidated into a standard tests/ structure
  • ✅ Can be automatically detected and executed with pytest
  • ✅ Clear classification by category (unit/integration/performance/e2e)
  • ✅ Centralized management of test coverage
  • ✅ Easy integration with CI/CD pipelines

Next steps

  1. Building a test execution environment
  2. Installing dependencies

  3. Preparation of GPU/CPU test environment

  4. Run the testbash pytest tests/unit/ -v --cov=evospikenet pytest tests/integration/ -v pytest tests/performance/ -v -m slow

  5. Generate Coverage Reportbash pytest tests/ --cov=evospikenet --cov-report=html

  6. CI/CD integration

  7. Automatic test execution with GitHub Actions/GitLab CI
  8. Added coverage badge

summary

The testing infrastructure of the EvoSpikeNet project has been significantly improved with the integration of test directories. The 206 test files are properly categorized and organized and follow the pytest standard directory structure. This made test execution, maintenance, and CI/CD integration all easier.
