Description

sasmodels 1.0 beta

Since we have restructured effective radius and form:shell volume ratio, the ER and VR tests no longer work.

Instead of using calculator() in direct_model.call_kernel, can use calculator.Fq() to return (F, Fsq, effective_radius, shell_volume, volume_ratio).

Because calculator.Fq() needs a q value, we can modify the test syntax from

tests = [
    ...
    ({}, 'ER', Reff),
    ({}, 'VR', form_to_shell),
    ...
]

to

tests = [
    ...
    ({'radius_effective_type': 1}, 0.1, None, Reff, form_to_shell),
    ...

That is, if the test uses 5 columns rather than three, then the last two columns will be ER and VR.

Is this too obscure? Do we also want to test F and Fsq outputs?

Maybe specify outputs as a dict, with missing entries not tested:

    ({radius_effective_type: 1}, 0.1, 
     {'F': F, 'Fsq': F*F, 'Reff': Reff, 'Vr': form_to_shell})

—-

A further issue is that there are now multiple effective radius types in some models.

It is probably good enough to treat each one as an independent test in the file.

For example, for cylinder, using the list form for specifying test results:

# Default radius and length
radius, length = parameters[2][2], parameters[3][2]
tests = [
    ...
    ({'radius_effective_type': 1}, 0.1, None, (0.75*radius**2*length)**(1./3.), None),
    ({'radius_effective_type': 2}, 0.1, None, radius, None),
    ({'radius_effective_type': 3}, 0.1, None, length/2., None),
    ({'radius_effective_type': 4}, 0.1, None, min(radius, length/2.), None),
    ({'radius_effective_type': 5}, 0.1, None, max(radius, length/2.), None),
    ({'radius_effective_type': 6}, 0.1, None, sqrt(4*radius**2 + length**2)/2., None),
]

The F and Fsq values returned from Fq are not scaled or normalized by volume and do not include background.

We should therefore use a six column format instead of five:

tests = [
    ...
    ({'radius_effective_type': 1}, 0.1, F, Fsq, Reff, form_to_shell_ratio),
    ...

This allows us to test the computed F value and simplifies the test code a tiny bit. Otherwise, it would have to compute I(q) = Fsq*scale/volume + background.
