This repository contains the integration test suite for RevBayes. Individual tests are stored in directories beginning with test_ and are run automatically by the script run_integration_tests.sh. The return status of this script is used to determine whether the tests have passed.

The RevBayes website tutorials can also be tested using this script by placing a test.sh script in the appropriate tutorial directory on the RevBayes website repository. The RevBayes website is used as a submodule of this repository and is automatically cloned and updated by the run_integration_tests.sh script. In order to clone and update it manually, you can use

git submodule update --init --recursive

This will clone the RevBayes website as a submodule directory. In order to test against a specific commit in the website repository, you should checkout that commit in the submodule.

Updating the test output or adding new tests requires both changes to this repository, as well as a change to the main RevBayes repository to update the version of the tests repository used by the main repository. Step-by-step instructions:

• make changes to the tests
• add and commit changes to the tests repository (using git add and git commit from within the tests folder)
• push the changes to the tests repository (using git push from within the tests folder). This requires no special permission or review.
• update the tests version used by the main repository (using git add tests, git commit and git push from within the revbayes folder)
• note that the tests version is specific to each branch, so your new/updated tests will only be used by the development branch once a PR has been made and merged in the main repository
