Thanks John,

Jeremy, for another example see: https://github.com/peterjc/galaxy_blast/issues/53

We have working tests using *.loc files, but they are currently commented out for upload to the Tool Shed because they fail there :(

As far as I know, there isn't yet a Trello issue for fixing this on the Tool Shed.

Hey Jeremy,

I have just updated the planemo tool development tutorial with an answer to this question (I am trying to assemble something of a tool development FAQ at the end of that tutorial):

http://planemo.readthedocs.org/en/latest/writing_standalone.html#test-index-...

tl;dr - You can define such tests but they will only work with planemo at this time unfortunately.

Galaxy Devs,

I've been following this documentation to write auto tests for my tools: https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Admin/Tools/WritingTests?action=show&redi...

Straightforward enough, but I am not sure how to incorporate input parameters from data tables into this. My tools currently use as input parameters entries/files from a data table. These files were installed using a data manager. Ideally, the tests should also reference the same data table files as the tools do. How can I do this?

Thanks, Jeremy Liu jeremy.liu@yale.edu
