def assert_(val, msg=''):

Assert that works in release mode. Accepts callable msg to allow deferring evaluation until failure.

The Python built-in assert does not work when executing code in optimized mode (the -O flag) - no byte-code is generated for it.

For documentation on usage, refer to the Python documentation.

def assert_allclose(actual, desired, rtol=1e-07, atol=0, equal_nan=True, err_msg='', verbose=True):

Raises an AssertionError if two objects are not equal up to desired tolerance.

The test is equivalent to allclose(actual, desired, rtol, atol) (note that allclose has different default values). It compares the difference between actual and desired to atol + rtol * abs(desired).

New in version 1.5.0.

Parameters

actual : array_like
Array obtained.
desired : array_like
Array desired.
rtol : float, optional
Relative tolerance.
atol : float, optional
Absolute tolerance.
equal_nan : bool, optional.
If True, NaNs will compare equal.
err_msg : str, optional
The error message to be printed in case of failure.
verbose : bool, optional
If True, the conflicting values are appended to the error message.

Raises

AssertionError
If actual and desired are not equal up to specified precision.

See Also

assert_array_almost_equal_nulp, assert_array_max_ulp

Examples

>>> x = [1e-5, 1e-3, 1e-1]
>>> y = np.arccos(np.cos(x))
>>> np.testing.assert_allclose(x, y, rtol=1e-5, atol=0)
def assert_almost_equal(actual, desired, decimal=7, err_msg='', verbose=True):

Raises an AssertionError if two items are not equal up to desired precision.

Note

It is recommended to use one of assert_allclose, assert_array_almost_equal_nulp or assert_array_max_ulp instead of this function for more consistent floating point comparisons.

The test verifies that the elements of actual and desired satisfy.

abs(desired-actual) < 1.5 * 10**(-decimal)

That is a looser test than originally documented, but agrees with what the actual implementation in assert_array_almost_equal did up to rounding vagaries. An exception is raised at conflicting values. For ndarrays this delegates to assert_array_almost_equal

Parameters

actual : array_like
The object to check.
desired : array_like
The expected object.
decimal : int, optional
Desired precision, default is 7.
err_msg : str, optional
The error message to be printed in case of failure.
verbose : bool, optional
If True, the conflicting values are appended to the error message.

Raises

AssertionError
If actual and desired are not equal up to specified precision.

def assert_approx_equal(actual, desired, significant=7, err_msg='', verbose=True):

Raises an AssertionError if two items are not equal up to significant digits.

Note

It is recommended to use one of assert_allclose, assert_array_almost_equal_nulp or assert_array_max_ulp instead of this function for more consistent floating point comparisons.

Given two numbers, check that they are approximately equal. Approximately equal is defined as the number of significant digits that agree.

Parameters

actual : scalar
The object to check.
desired : scalar
The expected object.
significant : int, optional
Desired precision, default is 7.
err_msg : str, optional
The error message to be printed in case of failure.
verbose : bool, optional
If True, the conflicting values are appended to the error message.

Raises

AssertionError
If actual and desired are not equal up to specified precision.

True
def assert_array_almost_equal(x, y, decimal=6, err_msg='', verbose=True):

Raises an AssertionError if two objects are not equal up to desired precision.

Note

It is recommended to use one of assert_allclose, assert_array_almost_equal_nulp or assert_array_max_ulp instead of this function for more consistent floating point comparisons.

The test verifies identical shapes and that the elements of actual and desired satisfy.

abs(desired-actual) < 1.5 * 10**(-decimal)

That is a looser test than originally documented, but agrees with what the actual implementation did up to rounding vagaries. An exception is raised at shape mismatch or conflicting values. In contrast to the standard usage in numpy, NaNs are compared like numbers, no assertion is raised if both objects have NaNs in the same positions.

Parameters

x : array_like
The actual object to check.
y : array_like
The desired, expected object.
decimal : int, optional
Desired precision, default is 6.
err_msg : str, optional
The error message to be printed in case of failure.
verbose : bool, optional
If True, the conflicting values are appended to the error message.

Raises

AssertionError
If actual and desired are not equal up to specified precision.

def assert_array_almost_equal_nulp(x, y, nulp=1):

Compare two arrays relatively to their spacing.

This is a relatively robust method to compare two arrays whose amplitude is variable.

Parameters

x, y : array_like
Input arrays.
nulp : int, optional
The maximum number of unit in the last place for tolerance (see Notes). Default is 1.

Returns

None

Raises

AssertionError
If the spacing between x and y for one or more elements is larger than nulp.

See Also

assert_array_max_ulp : Check that all items of arrays differ in at most
N Units in the Last Place.

spacing : Return the distance between x and the nearest adjacent number.

Notes

An assertion is raised if the following condition is not met:

abs(x - y) <= nulps * spacing(maximum(abs(x), abs(y)))

Examples

>>> x = np.array([1., 1e-10, 1e-20])
>>> eps = np.finfo(x.dtype).eps
>>> np.testing.assert_array_almost_equal_nulp(x, x*eps/2 + x)
>>> np.testing.assert_array_almost_equal_nulp(x, x*eps + x)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  ...
AssertionError: X and Y are not equal to 1 ULP (max is 2)
def assert_array_compare(comparison, x, y, err_msg='', verbose=True, header='', precision=6, equal_nan=True, equal_inf=True):

Undocumented

def assert_array_equal(x, y, err_msg='', verbose=True):

Raises an AssertionError if two array_like objects are not equal.

Given two array_like objects, check that the shape is equal and all elements of these objects are equal (but see the Notes for the special handling of a scalar). An exception is raised at shape mismatch or conflicting values. In contrast to the standard usage in numpy, NaNs are compared like numbers, no assertion is raised if both objects have NaNs in the same positions.

The usual caution for verifying equality with floating point numbers is advised.

Parameters

x : array_like
The actual object to check.
y : array_like
The desired, expected object.
err_msg : str, optional
The error message to be printed in case of failure.
verbose : bool, optional
If True, the conflicting values are appended to the error message.

Raises

AssertionError
If actual and desired objects are not equal.

See Also

assert_allclose: Compare two array_like objects for equality with desired
relative and/or absolute precision.

assert_array_almost_equal_nulp, assert_array_max_ulp, assert_equal

Notes

When one of x and y is a scalar and the other is array_like, the function checks that each element of the array_like object is equal to the scalar.

Examples

The first assert does not raise an exception:

>>> np.testing.assert_array_equal([1.0,2.33333,np.nan],
...                               [np.exp(0),2.33333, np.nan])

Assert fails with numerical imprecision with floats:

>>> np.testing.assert_array_equal([1.0,np.pi,np.nan],
...                               [1, np.sqrt(np.pi)**2, np.nan])
Traceback (most recent call last):
    ...
AssertionError:
Arrays are not equal
<BLANKLINE>
Mismatched elements: 1 / 3 (33.3%)
Max absolute difference: 4.4408921e-16
Max relative difference: 1.41357986e-16
 x: array([1.      , 3.141593,      nan])
 y: array([1.      , 3.141593,      nan])

Use assert_allclose or one of the nulp (number of floating point values) functions for these cases instead:

>>> np.testing.assert_allclose([1.0,np.pi,np.nan],
...                            [1, np.sqrt(np.pi)**2, np.nan],
...                            rtol=1e-10, atol=0)

As mentioned in the Notes section, assert_array_equal has special handling for scalars. Here the test checks that each value in x is 3:

>>> x = np.full((2, 5), fill_value=3)
>>> np.testing.assert_array_equal(x, 3)
def assert_array_less(x, y, err_msg='', verbose=True):

Raises an AssertionError if two array_like objects are not ordered by less than.

Given two array_like objects, check that the shape is equal and all elements of the first object are strictly smaller than those of the second object. An exception is raised at shape mismatch or incorrectly ordered values. Shape mismatch does not raise if an object has zero dimension. In contrast to the standard usage in numpy, NaNs are compared, no assertion is raised if both objects have NaNs in the same positions.

Parameters

x : array_like
The smaller object to check.
y : array_like
The larger object to compare.
err_msg : string
The error message to be printed in case of failure.
verbose : bool
If True, the conflicting values are appended to the error message.

Raises

AssertionError
If actual and desired objects are not equal.

def assert_array_max_ulp(a, b, maxulp=1, dtype=None):

Check that all items of arrays differ in at most N Units in the Last Place.

Parameters

a, b : array_like
Input arrays to be compared.
maxulp : int, optional
The maximum number of units in the last place that elements of a and b can differ. Default is 1.
dtype : dtype, optional
Data-type to convert a and b to if given. Default is None.

Returns

ret : ndarray
Array containing number of representable floating point numbers between items in a and b.

Raises

AssertionError
If one or more elements differ by more than maxulp.

Notes

For computing the ULP difference, this API does not differentiate between various representations of NAN (ULP difference between 0x7fc00000 and 0xffc00000 is zero).

See Also

assert_array_almost_equal_nulp : Compare two arrays relatively to their
spacing.

Examples

>>> a = np.linspace(0., 1., 100)
>>> res = np.testing.assert_array_max_ulp(a, np.arcsin(np.sin(a)))
def assert_equal(actual, desired, err_msg='', verbose=True):

Raises an AssertionError if two objects are not equal.

Given two objects (scalars, lists, tuples, dictionaries or numpy arrays), check that all elements of these objects are equal. An exception is raised at the first conflicting values.

When one of actual and desired is a scalar and the other is array_like, the function checks that each element of the array_like object is equal to the scalar.

This function handles NaN comparisons as if NaN was a "normal" number. That is, AssertionError is not raised if both objects have NaNs in the same positions. This is in contrast to the IEEE standard on NaNs, which says that NaN compared to anything must return False.

Parameters

actual : array_like
The object to check.
desired : array_like
The expected object.
err_msg : str, optional
The error message to be printed in case of failure.
verbose : bool, optional
If True, the conflicting values are appended to the error message.

Raises

AssertionError
If actual and desired are not equal.

Examples

>>> np.testing.assert_equal([4,5], [4,6])
Traceback (most recent call last):
    ...
AssertionError:
Items are not equal:
item=1
 ACTUAL: 5
 DESIRED: 6

The following comparison does not raise an exception. There are NaNs in the inputs, but they are in the same positions.

>>> np.testing.assert_equal(np.array([1.0, 2.0, np.nan]), [1, 2, np.nan])
def assert_no_gc_cycles(*args, **kwargs):

Fail if the given callable produces any reference cycles.

If called with all arguments omitted, may be used as a context manager:

with assert_no_gc_cycles():
do_something()
New in version 1.15.0.

Parameters

func : callable
The callable to test.
*args : Arguments
Arguments passed to func.
**kwargs : Kwargs
Keyword arguments passed to func.

Returns

Nothing. The result is deliberately discarded to ensure that all cycles are found.

def assert_no_warnings(*args, **kwargs):

Fail if the given callable produces any warnings.

If called with all arguments omitted, may be used as a context manager:

with assert_no_warnings():
do_something()

The ability to be used as a context manager is new in NumPy v1.11.0.

New in version 1.7.0.

Parameters

func : callable
The callable to test.
*args : Arguments
Arguments passed to func.
**kwargs : Kwargs
Keyword arguments passed to func.

Returns

The value returned by func.

def assert_raises(*args, **kwargs):

assert_raises(exception_class, callable, *args, **kwargs) assert_raises(exception_class)

Fail unless an exception of class exception_class is thrown by callable when invoked with arguments args and keyword arguments kwargs. If a different type of exception is thrown, it will not be caught, and the test case will be deemed to have suffered an error, exactly as for an unexpected exception.

Alternatively, assert_raises can be used as a context manager:

>>> from numpy.testing import assert_raises
>>> with assert_raises(ZeroDivisionError):
...     1 / 0

is equivalent to

>>> def div(x, y):
...     return x / y
>>> assert_raises(ZeroDivisionError, div, 1, 0)
def assert_raises_regex(exception_class, expected_regexp, *args, **kwargs):
assert_raises_regex(exception_class, expected_regexp, callable, *args,
**kwargs)

assert_raises_regex(exception_class, expected_regexp)

Fail unless an exception of class exception_class and with message that matches expected_regexp is thrown by callable when invoked with arguments args and keyword arguments kwargs.

Alternatively, can be used as a context manager like assert_raises.

Name of this function adheres to Python 3.2+ reference, but should work in all versions down to 2.6.

Notes

New in version 1.9.0.
def assert_string_equal(actual, desired):

Test if two strings are equal.

If the given strings are equal, assert_string_equal does nothing. If they are not equal, an AssertionError is raised, and the diff between the strings is shown.

Parameters

actual : str
The string to test for equality against the expected string.
desired : str
The expected string.

Examples

>>> np.testing.assert_string_equal('abc', 'abc')
>>> np.testing.assert_string_equal('abc', 'abcd')
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
...
AssertionError: Differences in strings:
- abc+ abcd?    +
def assert_warns(warning_class, *args, **kwargs):

Fail unless the given callable throws the specified warning.

A warning of class warning_class should be thrown by the callable when invoked with arguments args and keyword arguments kwargs. If a different type of warning is thrown, it will not be caught.

If called with all arguments other than the warning class omitted, may be used as a context manager:

with assert_warns(SomeWarning):
do_something()

The ability to be used as a context manager is new in NumPy v1.11.0.

New in version 1.4.0.

Parameters

warning_class : class
The class defining the warning that func is expected to throw.
func : callable, optional
Callable to test
*args : Arguments
Arguments for func.
**kwargs : Kwargs
Keyword arguments for func.

Returns

The value returned by func.

Examples

>>> import warnings
>>> def deprecated_func(num):
...     warnings.warn("Please upgrade", DeprecationWarning)
...     return num*num
>>> with np.testing.assert_warns(DeprecationWarning):
...     assert deprecated_func(4) == 16
>>> # or passing a func
>>> ret = np.testing.assert_warns(DeprecationWarning, deprecated_func, 4)
>>> assert ret == 16
def break_cycles():

Break reference cycles by calling gc.collect Objects can call other objects' methods (for instance, another object's

__del__) inside their own __del__. On PyPy, the interpreter only runs

between calls to gc.collect, so multiple calls are needed to completely release all cycles.

Check whether free_bytes amount of memory is currently free. Returns: None if enough memory available, otherwise error message
def decorate_methods(cls, decorator, testmatch=None):

Apply a decorator to all methods in a class matching a regular expression.

The given decorator is applied to all public methods of cls that are matched by the regular expression testmatch (testmatch.search(methodname)). Methods that are private, i.e. start with an underscore, are ignored.

Parameters

cls : class
Class whose methods to decorate.
decorator : function
Decorator to apply to methods
testmatch : compiled regexp or str, optional
The regular expression. Default value is None, in which case the nose default (re.compile(r'(?:^|[\b_\.%s-])[Tt]est' % os.sep)) is used. If testmatch is a string, it is compiled to a regular expression first.

def gisfinite(x):

like isfinite, but always raise an error if type not supported instead of returning a TypeError object.

Notes

isfinite and other ufunc sometimes return a NotImplementedType object instead of raising any exception. This function is a wrapper to make sure an exception is always raised.

This should be removed once this problem is solved at the Ufunc level.

def gisinf(x):

like isinf, but always raise an error if type not supported instead of returning a TypeError object.

Notes

isinf and other ufunc sometimes return a NotImplementedType object instead of raising any exception. This function is a wrapper to make sure an exception is always raised.

This should be removed once this problem is solved at the Ufunc level.

def gisnan(x):

like isnan, but always raise an error if type not supported instead of returning a TypeError object.

Notes

isnan and other ufunc sometimes return a NotImplementedType object instead of raising any exception. This function is a wrapper to make sure an exception is always raised.

This should be removed once this problem is solved at the Ufunc level.

def integer_repr(x):
Return the signed-magnitude interpretation of the binary representation of x.
def jiffies(_proc_pid_stat=f"""/proc/{os.getpid()}/stat""", _load_time=[]):

Return number of jiffies elapsed.

Return number of jiffies (1/100ths of a second) that this process has been scheduled in user mode. See man 5 proc.

def measure(code_str, times=1, label=None):

Return elapsed time for executing code in the namespace of the caller.

The supplied code string is compiled with the Python builtin compile. The precision of the timing is 10 milli-seconds. If the code will execute fast on this timescale, it can be executed many times to get reasonable timing accuracy.

Parameters

code_str : str
The code to be timed.
times : int, optional
The number of times the code is executed. Default is 1. The code is only compiled once.
label : str, optional
A label to identify code_str with. This is passed into compile as the second argument (for run-time error messages).

Returns

elapsed : float
Total elapsed time in seconds for executing code_str times times.

Examples

>>> times = 10
>>> etime = np.testing.measure('for i in range(1000): np.sqrt(i**2)', times=times)
>>> print("Time for a single execution : ", etime / times, "s")  # doctest: +SKIP
Time for a single execution :  0.005 s

def nulp_diff(x, y, dtype=None):

For each item in x and y, return the number of representable floating points between them.

Parameters

x : array_like
first input array
y : array_like
second input array
dtype : dtype, optional
Data-type to convert x and y to if given. Default is None.

Returns

nulp : array_like
number of representable floating point numbers between each item in x and y.

Notes

For computing the ULP difference, this API does not differentiate between various representations of NAN (ULP difference between 0x7fc00000 and 0xffc00000 is zero).

Examples

# By definition, epsilon is the smallest number such as 1 + eps != 1, so # there should be exactly one ULP between 1 and 1 + eps >>> nulp_diff(1, 1 + np.finfo(x.dtype).eps) 1.0

def print_assert_equal(test_string, actual, desired):

Test if two objects are equal, and print an error message if test fails.

The test is performed with actual == desired.

Parameters

test_string : str
The message supplied to AssertionError.
actual : object
The object to test for equality against desired.
desired : object
The expected result.

Examples

>>> np.testing.print_assert_equal('Test XYZ of func xyz', [0, 1], [0, 1])
>>> np.testing.print_assert_equal('Test XYZ of func xyz', [0, 1], [0, 2])
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
AssertionError: Test XYZ of func xyz failed
ACTUAL:
[0, 1]
DESIRED:
[0, 2]
def raises(*args):

Decorator to check for raised exceptions.

The decorated test function must raise one of the passed exceptions to pass. If you want to test many assertions about exceptions in a single test, you may want to use assert_raises instead.

Warning

This decorator is nose specific, do not use it if you are using a different test framework.

Parameters

args : exceptions
The test passes if any of the passed exceptions is raised.

Raises

AssertionError

Examples

Usage:

@raises(TypeError, ValueError)
def test_raises_type_error():
    raise TypeError("This test passes")

@raises(Exception)
def test_that_fails_by_passing():
    pass
def requires_memory(free_bytes):
Decorator to skip a test if not enough memory is available
def rundocs(filename=None, raise_on_error=True):

Run doctests found in the given file.

By default rundocs raises an AssertionError on failure.

Parameters

filename : str
The path to the file for which the doctests are run.
raise_on_error : bool
Whether to raise an AssertionError when a doctest fails. Default is True.

Notes

The doctests can be run by the user/developer by adding the doctests argument to the test() call. For example, to run all tests (including doctests) for numpy.lib:

>>> np.lib.test(doctests=True)  # doctest: +SKIP
def runstring(astr, dict):

@contextlib.contextmanager
def tempdir(*args, **kwargs):

Context manager to provide a temporary test folder.

All arguments are passed as this to the underlying tempfile.mkdtemp function.

@contextlib.contextmanager
def temppath(*args, **kwargs):

Context manager for temporary files.

Context manager that returns the path to a closed temporary file. Its parameters are the same as for tempfile.mkstemp and are passed directly to that function. The underlying file is removed when the context is exited, so it should be closed at that time.

Windows does not allow a temporary file to be opened if it is already open, so the underlying file must be closed after opening before it can be opened again.
