QA Testing Fails

GNU Radio
1

When completing the tutorial for an out-of-tree-module, the qa tests
never
pass. The errors received look like the following when running the ctest
-V
command:
test 2
Start 2: qa_square_ff

2: Test command: /bin/sh
“/home/sdr/Tutorials/gr-howto/build/python/qa_square_ff_test.sh”
2: Test timeout computed to be: 9.99988e+06
2: Traceback (most recent call last):
2: File “/home/sdr/Tutorials/gr-howto/python/qa_square_ff.py”, line
22,
in
2: import howto_swig as howto
2: File “/home/sdr/Tutorials/gr-howto/build/swig/howto_swig.py”, line
314, in
2: square_ff = square_ff.make;
2: NameError: name ‘square_ff’ is not defined
2/2 Test #2: qa_square_ff …***Failed 0.18 sec

Is my qa code in the wrong place? I followed the tutorial and updated
python/qa_square_ff.py

Thanks

Brooke,

you’ll have to be more specific.
Were you creating a Python block? A C++ block? Which version do you have
installed?

This line is definitely wrong. My guess is you’re completing tutorial 1
(C++ blocks). Read
http://gnuradio.org/redmine/projects/gnuradio/wiki/OutOfTreeModules#Test-Driven-Programming
again, and compare your QA codes with those given there.

Probably just your QA code. See above.

Good luck,
MB

I think this is some bug in QA code generation script. In howto_swig.py
file, the definition of square_ff is after it is used. If You move this
definition up, tests will pass.

Another mystery for me is, why in a Makefile generated by cmake, the
“test” target is not dependent on target “all” (or something that will
cause compilation if code is changed) ?
