• Python 3.6

Developing on linux also requires the following packages for building libtcod-cffi from source:

• gcc
• libsdl2-dev
• libffi-dev
• python-dev

Once those dependencies are installed then run the following command (system independent) to install the python dependencies.

pip install -r requirements.txt

which should be installed before attempting to run pip install.

All unit tests are run on all branches on push and the results are on Travis CI , if you want to run the tests locally you can use

py.test --cov=CreatureRogue tests/

There are some functional tests for the various components (e.g. the battle system) which consist of simple top level python applications that only invoke the parts of the main application that are needed to run those areas. These are:

You can test the battle system by running:

python battle_test.py <pokedex#1> <level> <pokedex#2> <level> 

So for example, python battle_test.py 1 50 4 50 will start a battle between a level 50 Charmander and a level 50 Bulbasaur.

You can test the pokedex view by running:

python pokedex_test.py

which will display a random pokedex (i.e. some creatures will be known, seen and unknown).
