2.3. Makefile targets

The Makefile in the source code repository of the SuMPF package has the following targets:

• make test runs the unit tests.
• make test_coverage runs the unit tests and prints information about their test coverage.
• make test_without_optional_dependencies runs the unit tests with the optional dependencies being made unavailable, so that it’s tested, if SuMPF degrades gracefully.
• make lint checks the package and the unit tests with Pylint and flake8.
• make docs builds the documentation.

The test, test_coverage and test_without_optional_dependencies targets also accept parameters, which are passed to the pytest call. This allows to run only specific tests, for example make test documentation will only run the doctest tests of the files in the documentation directory.
