Dr Fergus Cooper, Research Software Engineer, Oxford RSE Group, gives a talk for the department of Statistics on 5th June 2020. Following on from Graham Lee's talk on automated testing, we will use GitHub actions to automate the testing of a small Python project. We will: recap why this might be a good idea; walk through setting up a workflow on GitHub; test our code against multiple Python versions on multiple operating systems; and integrate other services such as code coverage and automated documentation generation.
Dr Fergus Cooper is a member of the Oxford Research Software Engineering group, which he co-founded in 2018 after finishing a DPhil in the Mathematical Institute. His research background is computational biology where he developed agent-based models of the developing tooth placode. He is now a passionate advocate for software best practices in academia, and will talk to anyone about modern C++."
