Getting started

Macbook:

To get started, ensure you have Python 3 installed on your machine. You can check your Python version by running:

python3 --version

Testing a simple Chatbot

To test a simple chatbot that operates in the terminal, follow these steps:

1. Clone the repository to your local machine:

   git clone https://github.com/Tesena-smart-testing/chatbots.git

2. Run the test script using Python 3 from simmple/tests repository:

   python3 test_chat_bot.py

This will execute the tests for the terminal-based chatbot.

IF you it doent work, follow this part:

To run the tests, ensure you are in the simple directory and execute the following command:

PYTHONPATH=. python3 tests/test_chat_bot.py

This command sets the PYTHONPATH to the current directory, allowing Python to locate the necessary modules and run the tests successfully.

Testing a Chatbot with UI

To test a chatbot with a graphical user interface (UI), follow these steps:

1. Ensure you have Flask installed. If not, install it using pip:

   pip install flask

2. Start the Flask app:

   python3 app.py (MAC)
   python app.py (Windows)

3. Open your web browser and navigate to http://localhost:5000 to interact with the chatbot UI.

Measuring Code Coverage

To measure how much of your code is covered by the unit tests:

1. Install the Coverage Tool: If you haven’t installed it yet, run:

   coverage run -m pytest
   

Run Tests with Coverage : Execute the tests and measure coverage with the following command from simple repo:

'coverage run -m pytest'

View the Coverage Report : After running the tests, generate a report with:

coverage report -m

Generate an HTML Coverage Report (Optional) : For a detailed line-by-line coverage report:
