How to run a SimulationExperiment in TVBO — choosing a backend, calling run/plot, and what each optional extra (jax, tvb, pyrates, julia) provides.
How to write Python docstrings in TVBO so that quartodoc renders them correctly in the API site. Google style, markdown body, type info on signature (not in the docstring).

| description | pytest marker conventions for backend-tagged tests in TVBO, the slow/julia markers, and how to run the test suite locally. |
TVBO's test suite is backend-tagged: every backend integration test carries a marker so CI can run a subset depending on which extras are installed.
[tool.pytest.ini_options].markers)| Marker | Meaning |
|---|---|
backend_core | Backend-agnostic core simulation tests |
backend_jax | JAX backend |
backend_tvb | TVB backend |
backend_pyrates | PyRates backend |
backend_tvboptim | tvboptim backend |
backend_julia | Class-level Julia tests (any Julia-backed sim) |
backend_julia_diffeq | DifferentialEquations.jl |
backend_networkdynamics | NetworkDynamics.jl |
backend_mtk | ModelingToolkit.jl |
backend_neuroml | NeuroML/LEMS |
docs | Quarto/Jupyter notebook execution tests |
julia | Needs a Julia runtime via juliacall |
slow | Long-running; excluded by default — pass --run-slow to include |
When adding a backend test, always apply the matching backend_* marker. CI uses these to filter.
# Fast, default subset
pytest
# Include slow tests
pytest --run-slow
# A specific backend
pytest -m backend_jax
# Exclude Julia entirely
pytest -m "not julia"
tests/ — the canonical suite.dev/test/ — exploratory scripts and notebooks. Not picked up by pytest.-n 1 --dist=loadscope (single-process, group-by-file). Don't override globally unless you have a reason.pyproject.toml or pytest will warn (--strict-markers).Edit [tool.pytest.ini_options].markers in pyproject.toml. Add the optional-dependency group under [project.optional-dependencies] so users can pip install tvbo[<backend>]. See the codegen-templates skill for the full new-backend checklist.
