hollerandClaude Sonnet 5 b80c6417d2 fix(lamni): go-live audit tier 2 -- wrong numbers and missing flomni ports
- tomo_scan_projection() now adds the projection to the reconstruction queue
  itself (like flomni), so custom at_each_angle hooks and direct calls are
  reconstructed; _at_each_angle()/MagLamNI no longer do it (no double entry).
  tomo_alignment_scan() opts out (_reconstruct=False) to keep its previous
  behaviour -- flomni's alignment projections are queued, LamNI's never were.
- write_pdf_report(): branch on tomo_type (a golden-ratio scan reported a stale
  type-1 count and a hardcoded '8 sub-tomograms'), e-account from
  bec.active_account, tolerate a missing detector_distance.
- tomo_parameters_cli(): range guards (stitch 0-50, frames 1-100, >= 8
  projections, type-3 >= 1, golden max 0-1e6, bunch size 20-100).
- Webpage: projection count for tomo type 1 used flomni's 180-degree
  sub-tomograms (half the real count); TOMO_TYPES gets a base_angle. Also show
  the piezo range, manual shift and 0-degree reference rows.
- Tomo-params GUI: manual shift is mm end to end (label/range said um, +-1000);
  golden bunch size floor 20 for LamNI (setter/CLI already required it, so a
  smaller GUI value broke tomo_queue_execute). flomni fields untouched.
- lfzp_info() and the queue 'move Energy' entry used the legacy 'mokev' device
  (only in device_configs/legacy); now ccm_energy.
- Special-angle UnboundLocalError fixed in flomni too (list consumed only after
  a successful projection, so retries still see the special angle).
- Tomo type 3: exact integer sub-tomogram numbering (float truncation mislabelled
  the boundary projection for ~35 values of n < 400).
- XrayEyeAlign.align(): always reset the GUI (DAP forwarding, crosshair) on any
  failure; xrayeye_update_frame() warns when beamline states are invalid.
- Stale text / debug print; gap doc updated with the current status.

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.
