description	Run unified test suite for BVR Sim. One-click testing with automatic build and validation.

BVR Sim Test Suite

Run comprehensive tests automatically from the project root.

Quick Start

Command	Description
python run_tests.py	Run full test suite (build + all tests)

What Gets Run

The unified test suite (run_tests.py) does:

1. Build C++ components (Windows: build_windows.bat, Linux: build_linux.sh)
2. Import local bvr_sim package directly (no pip install)
3. C++ unit tests - Low-level C++ functionality
4. C3Utils unit tests - C3Utils library tests
5. C++ core tests - C++ backend validation
6. Python core tests - Python backend validation

Benefits

• Faster test runs - No pip install overhead, direct import of local changes
• Instant feedback - Test local modifications immediately after build
• Simple workflow - Single command from project root

Requirements

• Windows: MSVC build tools
• Linux: GCC or Clang
• Python 3.8+

Usage

# From project root, run all tests
python run_tests.py

Troubleshooting

Use linux bash param style (-d), rather than dos style (/d).

Incorrect:

cd /d G:/bvr_sim && python run_tests.py  # Wrong - bash error cd: too many arguments

Correct (relative path):

python run_tests.py  # Right - works anywhere

Common Issues

• Build fails: Check compiler is installed and in PATH
• Import errors: Ensure build_windows.bat completed successfully (looks for bvr_sim_cpp.pyd in bvr_sim/)
• C++ tests fail: Verify Eigen and pybind11 were downloaded during build
