To trigger the code for testing you simple execute py.test or pytest (more infos in the docu[pytest](https://docs.pytest.org/en/latest/)) out of a cmd within your project root. It will search for tests and execute the tests. It gives you feedback whether it fails or it passes.

Thats it! Keep it simple!

To learn more about how to write tests you can have a look at the[Basic Coding Tutorial](https://github.com/RWTH-EBC/EBC-Tutorials/tree/pytests/EBC-Python-101/basic_coding_tutorial).

This section should get you in touch with testing code. Writing a test is simple and useful. With additional features like automated testing with[Travis-CI](https://docs.travis-ci.com/) (Very straight forward) and[gitlab-runner](https://about.gitlab.com/2016/03/01/gitlab-runner-with-docker/) (Not sure if this is still up to date), you do not even need to trigger the tests by yourself. In addition you can use tools like[coveralls.io](https://coveralls.io/) to do automated reporting and coverage testing of your program. All in all strong and useful add-ons.
