Hello,
I'm trying to add a <tests> section for a tool which has a boolean/checkbox parameter. If one of the tests set the parameter's value to "false", the test throws an exception (before starting the actual job). If changed to "true", the test works.
I've seen only a few tools with a boolean parameter (grouping.xml, complement.xml, concat.xml, merge.xml, phastOdds_tool.xml) and all of them only test the "true" value.
I've tried setting the value to "false", to an empty string, and removing the parameter entirely, but it always throws an exception similar to: ================= Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/gordon/temp/galaxy/test/functional/test_toolbox.py", line 134, in test_tool self.do_it( td ) File "/home/gordon/temp/galaxy/test/functional/test_toolbox.py", line 56, in do_it self.run_tool( testdef.tool.id, repeat_name=repeat_name, **page_inputs ) File "/home/gordon/temp/galaxy/test/base/twilltestcase.py", line 920, in run_tool self.submit_form( **kwd ) File "/home/gordon/temp/galaxy/test/base/twilltestcase.py", line 870, in submit_form raise AssertionError( errmsg ) AssertionError: Attempting to set field 'header' to value '['false']' in form 'tool_form' threw exception: id=None name='false' label=None control: <CheckboxControl(header=[true])> If the above control is a DataToolparameter whose data type class does not include a sniff() method, make sure to include a proper 'ftype' attribute to the tag for the control within the <test> tag set. =================
Any workarounds ?
thanks, -gordon
Assaf,
This is a known limitation of the test framework at the moment. Boolean's can't be tested with a 'false' value.
It's not ideal, but what I resorted to doing was changing the boolean parameter to a select with 'true' and 'false' options.

Another strange but reproducible testing bug (at least on my computer):
if the name of the input file is longer than 30 characters, the test will fail with a weird exception.
Example: The following <test> works: ==== <test> <param name="input" value="replace_text_in_column_in1.txt" ftype="tabular" /> ... ... ====
While the following <test> will fail: ==== <test> <param name="input" value="replace_text_in_column_ink1.txt" ftype="tabular" /> ... ... ===
The only difference between the two is that the input file name is one letter longer ("k" added to the "ink1" part). All other parameters stay exactly the same, and both input files (with and without "k") exist.
The second <test> version fails with the following exception: ======== FAIL: Replace Text ( cshl_awk_replace_in_column ) > Test-1 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/gordon/temp/galaxy/test/functional/test_toolbox.py", line 134, in test_tool self.do_it( td ) File "/home/gordon/temp/galaxy/test/functional/test_toolbox.py", line 56, in do_it self.run_tool( testdef.tool.id, repeat_name=repeat_name, **page_inputs ) File "/home/gordon/temp/galaxy/test/base/twilltestcase.py", line 920, in run_tool self.submit_form( **kwd ) File "/home/gordon/temp/galaxy/test/base/twilltestcase.py", line 870, in submit_form raise AssertionError( errmsg ) AssertionError: Attempting to set field 'input' to value '['replace_text_in_column_ink1.txt']' in form 'tool_form' threw exception: cannot find value/label "replace_text_in_column_ink1.txt" in list control control: <SelectControl(input=[1])> If the above control is a DataToolparameter whose data type class does not include a sniff() method, make sure to include a proper 'ftype' attribute to the tag for the control within the <test> tag set.

Looks like somehow the "input" selection box values are overwritten with the single value "1" .
I guess there's not much to do about this, except maybe warn and document it in the wiki.

P.S. I assume you (galaxy team) didn't write the testing framework. Is there a documentation of the this framework, with possibly a list of these issues ? I'm trying to be a good Galaxy citizen and write unit tests for my tools, but these quirks waste a lot of time...

I looked into this a bit, but could not find the cause in the twill code, which is where the problem lies. For now, just keep test file names shorter than 30 characters and I'll track down a fix if I get a chance.
