## About The Pull Request Heavily refactors wounds AGAIN. The primary thing this PR does is completely change how wounds are generated and added - while the normal "hit a guy til they bleed" stuff works about the same, asking for a specific type of wound, say, like how vending machines try to apply a compound fracture sometimes, isnt going to work if we ever get any non-organic wounds, which the previous refactor allowed. With this PR, however... * You can now ask for a specific type of wound via get_corresponding_wound_type(), which takes wound types, a limb, wound series, etc. and will try to give you a wound fitting those specifications - but also, a wound that can be applied to a limb. * This will allow for a vending machine to apply a compound fracture to a human, but a collapsed superstructure (assuming my synth wounds go in) to a robot There are now new "series types" and "wound specific types" that allow us to designate what series are "mainline" and randomly generatable, and what are "alternate types" and must be generated manually - you can see the documentation in wounds.dm. The behavior of limping and interaction delays has been abstracted to datum/wound from bone wounds to allow just, general ease of development Pregen data now allows for series-specific wound penalties. Example: You could set a burn wound's series wound penalty to 40, which would make wound progression in the burn category easier - but it would not make it any easier to get a slashing wound. As it stands wound penalties are for wounds globally Scar files are now picked in a "priority" list, where the wound checks to see if the limb has a biostate before moving down in said list. Example: Wounds will check for flesh first, if it finds it - it will use the flesh scar list. Failing that, they then check bone - if it uses that, it will use the bone scar list. This allows for significantly more modular scars that dont even need much proc editing when a new wound type is added Misc changes: most initial() usage has been replaced by singleton datums, wound_type is now wound_types and thus wounds can accept multiple wound types, wounds can now accept multiple tool behaviors for treatment, wounds now have a picking weight so we can make certain wounds rarer flatly, This PR also allows for wounds to override lower severity wounds on generation, allowing eswords to jump to avulsions - but in spirit of refactoring, this has been disabled by default (see pregen data's competition_mode var). ## Why It's Good For The Game Code quality is good! Also, all the changes above allow wounds to be a MUCH more modular system, which is one of its biggest problems right now - everything is kinda hardcoded and static, making creative work within wounds harder to do. ## Changelog 🆑 refactor: Refactored wounds yet again fix: Wounds are now picked from the most severe down again, meaning eswords can jump to avulsions fix: Scar descs are now properly applied /🆑
Unit Tests
What is unit testing?
Unit tests are automated code to verify that parts of the game work exactly as they should. For example, a test to make sure that the amputation surgery actually amputates the limb. These are ran every time a PR is made, and thus are very helpful for preventing bugs from cropping up in your code that would've otherwise gone unnoticed. For example, would you have thought to check that beach boys would still work the same after editing pizza? If you value your time, probably not.
On their most basic level, when UNIT_TESTS is defined, all subtypes of /datum/unit_test will have their Run proc executed. From here, if Fail is called at any point, then the tests will report as failed.
How do I write one?
- Find a relevant file.
All unit test related code is in code/modules/unit_tests. If you are adding a new test for a surgery, for example, then you'd open surgeries.dm. If a relevant file does not exist, simply create one in this folder, then #include it in _unit_tests.dm.
- Create the unit test.
To make a new unit test, you simply need to define a /datum/unit_test.
For example, let's suppose that we are creating a test to make sure a proc square correctly raises inputs to the power of two. We'd start with first:
/datum/unit_test/square/Run()
This defines our new unit test, /datum/unit_test/square. Inside this function, we're then going to run through whatever we want to check. Tests provide a few assertion functions to make this easy. For now, we're going to use TEST_ASSERT_EQUAL.
/datum/unit_test/square/Run()
TEST_ASSERT_EQUAL(square(3), 9, "square(3) did not return 9")
TEST_ASSERT_EQUAL(square(4), 16, "square(4) did not return 16")
As you can hopefully tell, we're simply checking if the output of square matches the output we are expecting. If the test fails, it'll report the error message given as well as whatever the actual output was.
- Run the unit test
Open code/_compile_options.dm and uncomment the following line.
//#define UNIT_TESTS //If this is uncommented, we do a single run though of the game setup and tear down process with unit tests in between
Then, run tgstation.dmb in Dream Daemon. Don't bother trying to connect, you won't need to. You'll be able to see the outputs of all the tests. You'll get to see which tests failed and for what reason. If they all pass, you're set!
How to think about tests
Unit tests exist to prevent bugs that would happen in a real game. Thus, they should attempt to emulate the game world wherever possible. For example, the quick swap sanity test emulates a real scenario of the bug it fixed occurring by creating a character and giving it real items. The unrecommended alternative would be to create special test-only items. This isn't a hard rule, the reagent method exposure tests create a test-only reagent for example, but do keep it in mind.
Unit tests should also be just that--testing units of code. For example, instead of having one massive test for reagents, there are instead several smaller tests for testing exposure, metabolization, etc.
The unit testing API
You can find more information about all of these from their respective doc comments, but for a brief overview:
/datum/unit_test - The base for all tests to be ran. Subtypes must override Run(). New() and Destroy() can be used for setup and teardown. To fail, use TEST_FAIL(reason).
/datum/unit_test/proc/allocate(type, ...) - Allocates an instance of the provided type with the given arguments. Is automatically destroyed when the test is over. Commonly seen in the form of var/mob/living/carbon/human/human = allocate(/mob/living/carbon/human/consistent).
TEST_FAIL(reason) - Marks a failure at this location, but does not stop the test.
TEST_ASSERT(assertion, reason) - Stops the unit test and fails if the assertion is not met. For example: TEST_ASSERT(powered(), "Machine is not powered").
TEST_ASSERT_NOTNULL(a, message) - Same as TEST_ASSERT, but checks if !isnull(a). For example: TEST_ASSERT_NOTNULL(myatom, "My atom was never set!").
TEST_ASSERT_NULL(a, message) - Same as TEST_ASSERT, but checks if isnull(a). If not, gives a helpful message showing what a was. For example: TEST_ASSERT_NULL(delme, "Delme was never cleaned up!").
TEST_ASSERT_EQUAL(a, b, message) - Same as TEST_ASSERT, but checks if a == b. If not, gives a helpful message showing what both a and b were. For example: TEST_ASSERT_EQUAL(2 + 2, 4, "The universe is falling apart before our eyes!").
TEST_ASSERT_NOTEQUAL(a, b, message) - Same as TEST_ASSERT_EQUAL, but reversed.
TEST_FOCUS(test_path) - Only run the test provided within the parameters. Useful for reducing noise. For example, if we only want to run our example square test, we can add TEST_FOCUS(/datum/unit_test/square). Should never be pushed in a pull request--you will be laughed at.
Final Notes
- Writing tests before you attempt to fix the bug can actually speed up development a lot! It means you don't have to go in game and folllow the same exact steps manually every time. This process is known as "TDD" (test driven development). Write the test first, make sure it fails, then start work on the fix/feature, and you'll know you're done when your tests pass. If you do try this, do make sure to confirm in a non-testing environment just to double check.
- Make sure that your tests don't accidentally call RNG functions like
prob. Since RNG is seeded during tests, you may not realize you have until someone else makes a PR and the tests fail! - Do your best not to change the behavior of non-testing code during tests. While it may sometimes be necessary in the case of situations such as the above, it is still a slippery slope that can lead to the code you're testing being too different from the production environment to be useful.
