Godmode package for R

Provides alternative praise and encouragement, either in god-mode or proverbs mode. Aims to provide more variety and fun in testing.

Also offers a set of unexported functions that can be useful for quick & dirty substitution of functions in namespaces of other packages, which for some people / teams / R-analytics-setups can help in accelerating proto-typing, testing of changes and debugging and ultimately time-to-production. It is advised to get a good understanding of the base functions used in this part and their behavior, before attempting to make use of this elsewhere, in order to avoid undesired side effects and break-downs.

For related reasons, this package will quite certainly never make it to

Is meant to be used in conjunction with new version of testthat, which has been published to CRAN on 2017-12-13 (version 2.0.0).

Install with remotes:

remotes::install_github("miraisolutions/godmode")

Or in case you would like to build the vignette as well:

remotes::install_github("miraisolutions/godmode", build_opts = "")

To see an example for one possible way of how to use this package, best clone this repository into a new project inside RStudio and have a look at (i.e. read and try to run) tests/testthat/test-stochModel.R.

In case of proxy issues have a look at https://gist.github.com/evantoli/f8c23a37eb3558ab8765.

If you like to play sounds, make sure to install the audio package from CRAN. Then, in order to get something more fun than just a simple beep, you are free to replace the stub wave files in the external data sub-directory inst/extdata with some of your own music files, to which you own the license rights.

(The files should be named Die.wav and GameOver.wav, as to me the Nintendo sounds were the most befitting.)
