This page is dedicated to developers of new tools and people involved in the Victor maintenance.

Doxygen

The Doxygen documentation provides a comprehensive view of the Victor package. Is possible to navigate the class hierarchy, search for specific functions and their detailed description. For an overview of the implemented algorithms and methods visit the Introduction, Features and Reference pages. The current Doxygen documentation is available at:

Victor Doxygen Documentation

Unit test

Victor come along with a Unit Test suite providing an effective tool for testing core classes and the most important functions. The implemented tests have been organized by package (Align2, Biopool, Energy and Lobo). Each test has its own executable that will became available in bin/ after compiling:

• TestAlign2
• TestBiopool
• TestEnergy
• TestLobo

To obtain the test executable files you need the third party Cpp Unit library and to compile Victor with a special flag. In Ubuntu this library (Cpp Unit) is available in the libcppunit-dev package. To install the library do:

sudo apt-get install libcppunit-dev

After that, compile Victor itself and then compile the Victor tests, so:

make

make test=1

When executed, the software will produce an output as follows is case of success of each unit tests

Creating Test Suites for Energy:
Running the unit tests.
.......
OK (7 tests)

In case of failure, the program will highlight the execution outcome, and shows the function that failed

!!!FAILURES!!!
Test Results:
Run:  7   Failures: 1   Errors: 0

1) test: Test3 - energy propensity difference have to be positive. (F) line: 111 ./TestSolvationPotential.h
assertion failed
- Expression: increasingEnergy
