Tests, documentation, and code

Code documentation

  • This is based on the section 'Object documentation' of the book 'R packages' by Wickham
  • Use roxygen2 to write inline code documentation of functions
  • Use regular R-style comments to additionally document code
  • Update help pages and the NAMESPACE file with the command devtools::document()
  • Add examples to function documentation and check that these examples work with the command devtools::run_examples()

Code tests and package checks

  • This is based on the section 'Testing' of the book 'R packages' by Wickham

  • Unit tests

    • Use testthat to add unit tests to the existing framework
    • Run unit tests with the command devtools::test()
  • Package checks

    • Package checks are run with devtools::check(cran = TRUE, env_vars = c(NOT_CRAN = "true")) or R CMD build . && NOT_CRAN = "true" R CMD check *.tar.gz
    • Package checks include unit tests, code style, and spelling
    • These checks will be run on the continuous integration frameworks via a workflow in Github Action for pull requests
    • Development/feature branches can only be merged into main if they pass all checks

Version numbers

We attempt to follow guidelines of semantic versioning with version numbers of MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH.

If the version numbers changes, then the following files must be updated

  • DESCRIPTION: adjust lines 'Version'
