Testing Plugins¶
Testing a QIIME 2 plugin is a snap with TestPluginBase!
This document will not attempt to detail best-practices with respect to testing
strategies - ask n developers how to test code and you will get n+1
answers back. QIIME 2 does however provide a convenience test harness to
simplify a few of the more repetitive parts of testing. Rather than
copy-and-paste code blocks here, links to the real code are presented below.
Formats¶

Types¶

Transformers¶

Plugin Registration¶
Note
testing plugin registration does not require the use of the QIIME 2 test harness.
