Hi folks,
In a recent thread [1] on sage-notebook, it was suggested that files
under the component
sage/server
need not contribute to the total doctest coverage.
That seems a slightly strange decision to me. From the link it is apparent the
code is still in use. To quote from there:
"sage/server/notebook/worksheet.py cannot be removed since the sources
under server/notebook/* are still used by SageNB for conversion from
the old pickled data storage format to the new one."
So why should it not be tested?
Taking a cue from
that, today's coverage update [2] contains good news.
This strikes me as rather fiddling things to make the statistics look better.
I have blacklisted everything under sage/server in generating the new
doctest reports at [2]. This now means that as of Sage 4.4.4.alpha0,
the overall weighted coverage score is 84.6%. Previously, the number
of strategic modules was 180, i.e. we needed to get 180 modules up to
full coverage in order to meet the 90% coverage goal. Now, the number
of strategic modules is down to 140.
This reminds me of the saying:
"There are lies, damn lies, and statistics".
