Testing Instructions

This document provides detailed instructions for testing pyremap.

Running Tests

Ensure all dependencies are installed. You can use conda to install any missing dependencies:
```
conda install --file dev-spec.txt
```

Install pyremap in edit mode:

python -m pip install --no-deps --no-build-isolation -e .

Run the test suite using pytest:
```
pytest --pyargs tests
```
To run a specific test file, provide the file path:
```
pytest path/to/test_file.py
```
For more verbose output, use the -v flag:
```
pytest -v --pyargs tests
```

Writing Tests

Place all test files in the pyremap/tests/ directory.
Use descriptive names for test functions and files.
Follow the pytest conventions for writing tests.

Debugging Failures

Use the --pdb flag to drop into the Python debugger on test failure:
```
pytest --pdb --pyargs tests
```
Review the stack trace provided by pytest to identify the source of the failure.

Additional Resources
