HexoDSP has an automated test +suite to check if any changes on the internal DSP helpers break something. Or if some +changes on some DSP node accidentally broke something. Or if a platform behaves weirdly. +Or even if upstream crates that are included broke or changed something essential. + +A few things you can test your DSP code for: + +- Is non 0.0 signal emitted? +- Is the signal inside the -1..1 or 0..1 range? +- Does the signal level change in expected ways if the input parameters are changed? +- Does the frequency spectrum peak at expected points in the FFT output? +- Does the frequency spectrum change to expected points in the FFT output when an input parameter +changed? + +Try to nail down the characteristics of your DSP node with a few tests as well as possible. + +For the FFT and other tests there are helper functions in `tests/common/mod.rs` + The start of your `tests/node_*.rs` file usually should look like this: ```ignore diff --git a/src/matrix.rs b/src/matrix.rs index 2e5925f..5519680 100644 --- a/src/matrix.rs +++ b/src/matrix.rs @@ -314,7 +314,7 @@ impl Cell { } /// Finds the first free input or output (one without an adjacent cell).
