Library Philosophy
The core philosophy of forest-benchmarking
is to separate:
- Experiment design and or generation
- Data collection
- Data analysis
- Data visualisation
We ask that code contributed to this repository respect this separation.
We also ask that an example of how to use your contributed code is placed
in the /examples/
directory along with the standard documentation found in /docs/
.
Testing
The unit tests can be run locally using pytest
, but beware that the test dependencies
must be installed beforehand using pip install -r requirements.txt
.
Disclaimer
This package is currently in alpha (v0.x), and therefore you should not expect that APIs will necessarily be stable between releases. Code that depends on this package in its current state is very likely to break when the package version changes, so we encourage you to pin the version you use, and update it consciously when necessary.
