Testing the Shiplist

Test Driven Development

I have spent a lot of time writing tests for the shiplist, making sure that it is sane. The idea here is to implement "Test Driven Development", normally a method/philosophy used by coders.

The method is simple:

  • determine a condition that must be met
  • find a way to code tests to the data that confirms the condition is true
  • run the tests against the whole mod.
  • clean up the issues detected
  • run ALL the tests each time new changes are introduced, in case we introduced problems.

By doing this, over and over, I know that the quality of this shiplist is at its best ever.


Example: Mauler

Maulers should all have the SpecialCode 'A' for Assault. The only exception is when the ship is set to 'R'estricted. The Mauler will have a Mauler weapon on it, and will have the role MAULER in the Enhanced Role or Enhanced Secondary Role column for this ship.

This is testable!

  • for each ship in the shiplist
    • for all weapons on this ship
      • if there's a Mauler
        • is this ship's SPECIAL code set to A or R?
          • If not, return an error about this ship.
        • is this ship's Enhanced Role or Enhanced Secondary Role set to MAULER?
          • If not, return an error about this ship

Result: 

# Check that maulers have appropriate special role 'A' or 'R' and that all 'A ships have a mauler
ok 56 - SpecialRole A are maulers, and maulers are A or R.

DESCRIPTION
    This module is a refactor of various functions I wanted refactored and
    shared between multiple OP+ related shiplist scripts.

  EXPORT
    None by default.

Model Testing

To test models, I simply reuse some old tools I have created way-back-when: 3 scripts that loads and then blows up a ship of each model.

The scripts do the following:

  • Find all the model files relevant to the current script (complete, single race, bases)
  • load up a ship for each model file, to test the .MOD file
  • blow up the ship, to test the _BRK.MOD file

The idea is that for each ship that it loads and then blows up, results are written to disk. To see the results, you can review a log file. The file is C:\TestModels.txt . If you run these scripts and you crashed, you should check this logfile!
