x01dcandClaude Sonnet 5 bac3fa8754 feat(lamni,bec_widgets): generalize tomo-params GUI to lamni, fix two sub_tomo_scan angle bugs
Generalize TomoParamsWidget to lamni via a SETUP_PROFILES mechanism
(setup detection, per-setup field lists/order, a new Offsets section,
a setup-agnostic "Duplicate job" queue button), fixing two latent
TomoQueueDialog bugs that silently mishandled lamni jobs along the way.

While verifying the GUI's projection-count preview against the CLI,
found two real, pre-existing bugs in LamNI.sub_tomo_scan() unrelated
to the GUI itself: a duplicate closing angle every sub-tomogram
(360=0 degrees), and a phase offset computed from the raw stepsize
instead of the achievable one, breaking the equally-spaced-when-
combined guarantee for sub-tomogram pairs/quads/the full set. Both
fixed to mirror Flomni's existing, correct equivalents.

Also fills in lamni's user documentation with the queue/command-job/
at-each-angle-hook system, which it previously lacked entirely,
mirroring flomni.md's coverage.

Getting Started with Testing using pytest

BEC is using the pytest framework. It can be installed via

pip install pytest

in your python environment. We note that pytest is part of the optional-dependencies [dev] of the plugin package.

Introduction

Tests in this package should be stored in the tests directory. We suggest to sort tests of different submodules, i.e. scans or devices in the respective folder structure, and to folow a naming convention of <test_module_name.py>. It is mandatory for test files to begin with test_ for pytest to discover them.

To run all tests, navigate to the directory of the plugin from the command line, and run the command

pytest -v --random-order ./tests

Note, the python environment needs to be active. The additional arg -v allows pytest to run in verbose mode which provides more detailed information about the tests being run. The argument --random-order instructs pytest to run the tests in random order, which is the default in the CI pipelines.

Test examples

Writing tests can be quite specific for the given function. We recommend writing tests as isolated as possible, i.e. try to test single functions instead of full classes. A very useful class to enable isolated testing is MagicMock. In addition, we also recommend to take a look at the How-to guides from pytest.
