A few failures -are totally fine (see sections 7+). You need to worry if a huge -majority of all files in a particular format (or post-processing configuration) -fails as this might be a sign of a recent regression in assimp's codebase or -gross incompatibility with your system or compiler. - -2) What do I need? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - - You need Python installed (2.7+, 3.x). On Windows, run the scripts using "py". - - You need to build the assimp command line tool (ASSIMP_BUILD_ASSIMP_TOOLS - CMake build flag). Both run.py and gen_db.py take the full path to the binary - as first command line parameter. - -3) How to add more test files? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -Use the following procedure: - - Verify the correctness of your assimp build - run the regression suite. - DO NOT continue if more tests fail than usual. - - Add your additional test files to <root>/test/models/<fileformat>, where - <fileformat> is the file type (typically the file extension). - - If you test file does not meet the BSD license requirements, add it to - <root>/test/models-nonbsd/<fileformat> so people know to be careful with it. - - Rebuild the regression database: - "gen_db.py <binary> -ixyz" where .xyz is the file extension of the new file. - - Run the regression suite again. There should be no new failures and the new - file should not be among the failures. - - Include the db.zip file with your Pull Request. Travis CI enforces a passing - regression suite (with offenders whitelisted as a last resort). - -4) I made a change/fix/patch to a loader, how to update the database? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - - Rebuild the regression database using "gen_db.py <binary> -ixyz" - where .xyz is the file extension for which the loader was patched. - - Run the regression suite again. There should be no new failures and the new - file should not be among the failures. - - Include the db.zip file with your Pull Request. Travis CI enforces a passing - regression suite (with offenders whitelisted as a last resort). - -5) How to add my whole model repository to the database? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - -Edit the reg_settings.py file and add the path to your repository to -<<model_directories>>. Then, rebuild the database. - -6) So what is actually tested? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -The regression database includes mini dumps of the aiScene data structure, i.e. -the scene hierarchy plus the sizes of all data arrays MUST match. Floating-point -data buffers, such as vertex positions are handled less strictly: min, max and -average values are stored with low precision. This takes hardware- or -compiler-specific differences in floating-point computations into account. -Generally, almost all significant regressions will be detected while the -number of false positives is relatively low. - -7) The test suite fails, what do do? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -Get back to <root>/test/results and look at regression_suite_failures.txt. -It contains a list of all files which failed the test. Failing dumps are copied to -<root>/test/results/tmp. Both an EXPECTED and an ACTUAL file is produced per test. -The output of "assimp cmpdump" is written to regressions_suite_output.txt. Grep -for the file name in question and locate the log for the failed comparison. It -contains a full trace of which scene elements have been compared before, which -makes it reasonably easy to locate the offending field. - -8) fp:fast vs fp:precise fails the test suite (same for gcc equivalents) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -As mentioned above, floating-point inaccuracies between differently optimized -builds are not considered regressions and all float comparisons done by the test -suite involve an epsilon to accommodate. However compiler settings that allow -compilers to perform non-IEEE754 compliant optimizations can cause arbitrary -failures in the test suite. Even if the compiler is configured to be IEE754 -comformant, there is lots of code in assimp that leaves the compiler a choice -and different compilers make different choices (for example the precision of -float intermediaries is implementation-specified). - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - |
