Test Model Plugin

Do some testing

1.1 Introduction

The purpose of the TestModel plugin is to conveniently embed a SBML test model in a plugin. In addition, the plugin provides the user with simulated data, with and without applied artificial Gaussian noise.

Currently no settings are exposed for the actual simulation of the test model.

The TestModel plugin depends on the AddNoise plugin.

1.2 Plugin Parameters

Table 1.1 lists available plugin property names, along with their data type and purpose.

Parameter Name	Data Type	Purpose


Model	string	The actual test model, in XML format.
TestData	TelluriumData	Simulated data, using the TestModel as input and default RoadRunner Simulation values.
TestDataWithNoise	TelluriumData	Simulated data, with applied noise.

1.3 Plugin Events

This plugin does not use any plugin events.

1.4 The execute() function

The execute() function will generate simulated data, and simulated data with noise. The data will be available in the properties, TestData and TestDataWithNoise respectively.

1.5 Python examples

1.5.1 Usage of the TestModel plugin

The python script below shows how to use the TestModel plugin.

1import teplugins as tel
2
3try:
4    modelPlugin = tel.Plugin("tel_test_model")
5
6    #Test model plugin depends on the add_noise plugin
7    noisePlugin = tel.Plugin("tel_add_noise")
8
9    #Generate internal test data
10    modelPlugin.execute()
11    test_data = modelPlugin.TestData
12    test_data_with_noise = modelPlugin.TestDataWithNoise
13
14    test_data.plot()
15    test_data_with_noise.plot()
16
17except Exception as e:
18    print ’Problem: ’ + ‘e‘
