Upgrading will not make you lose any notebook files or otherwise
corrupt them. The one difference is that in sage-2.8.>=15 when you do
sage -notebook
it creates the notebook state files in
$HOME/.sage/sage_notebook
instead of the current directory. You can still use the sage notebook
files in the current directory by doing
sage -notebook sage_notebook
Regarding your questions above, here are three examples that
each involve doctesting:
Doctesting a .sage file:
rank4:tmp was$ more nothing.sage
def foo():
"""
sage: foo()
[]
"""
return matrix()
rank4:tmp was$ sage -t nothing.sage
sage -t nothing.sage
Example 0 (line 2)
[2.3 s]
----------------------------------------------------------------------
All tests passed!
Total time for all tests: 2.3 seconds
Doctesting a .py file that uses sage:
rank4:tmp was$ more a.py
from sage.all import matrix
def foo():
"""
sage: from a import *
sage: foo()
[]
"""
return matrix()
rank4:tmp was$ sage -t a.py
sage -t a.py
[1.6 s]
----------------------------------------------------------------------
All tests passed!
Total time for all tests: 1.6 seconds
Doctesting a py file that happens to use Sage, but
using the standard Python doctest framework.
rank4:tmp was$ more b.py
from sage.all import matrix
def foo():
"""
>>> foo()
[]
"""
return matrix()
if __name__ == '__main__':
import doctest, sys
s = doctest.testmod(sys.modules[__name__], verbose=True)
rank4:tmp was$ sage -python b.py
Trying:
foo()
Expecting:
[]
ok
1 items had no tests:
__main__
1 items passed all tests:
1 tests in __main__.foo
1 tests in 2 items.
1 passed and 0 failed.
Test passed.
