testing custom models - issues?

[richardh]

Trying to follow manual "Writing a plugin model" to add a model (actually a needed reparametrisation of hollow_cylinder, see #675)

Please make the "info" box on "check model" results larger, as I had to copy & paste the output elsewhere to make sense of it.

After successful compile, is there a bug in:

run_one("c:/users/rkh98/.sasview/plugin_models/hollow_cylinder_new.py")
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<input>", line 1, in <module>
  File "C:\stfc\sasview4\sasmodels\sasmodels\model_test.py", line 293, in run_one
    if not suite._tests[0].info.tests:
IndexError: list index out of range

or was it an issue with my new model?

If you don't have openCL then the default "main()" test fails, could say how to get around this. I can get it to work with the openMP version:

main("-single!","-double!", "c:/users/rkh98/.sasview/plugin_models/hollow_cylinder_new.py")

Would be useful if manual said that ctrl/uparrow gets previous line back in python shell.

use public api to access test suite (refs #706)

I couldn't reproduce the error, but I posted a change that should fix it.

Please try again, and attach the file that was causing problems.

I'm leaving the ticket open until it is tested, and until the second part of the ticket (the request to update the docs) has been addressed.

See #748 for attached models.

No longer fails, but claims there are no tests if sasmodels.core.HAVE_OPENCL = False

run_one() uses dll if OpenCL is not available. Fixes #706.
