Could not run the unit test

[laurenceyu2020]

Hi:

I tried to run the unit test in VS code. But I got the following errors:

2024-07-13 08:31:15.083 [error] Reading directory to watch failed [Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, scandir '/Users//git/ElegantRL/unit_tests/.pixi/envs'

  errno: -2,
  syscall: 'scandir',
  code: 'ENOENT',
  path: '/Users/haohaiyu/git/ElegantRL/unit_tests/.pixi/envs'
}

my python version is
Python 3.10.1

I have installed the required packages.

Anyone know how to fix this? and why there is pixi here which does not mention in the docs.

Hi @laurenceyu2020

Seems like the system can't find directory you provide (ENOENT). Check all paths one more time
if in your case it is not the solution, try:

• open VS settings.json: type >preferences: open user settings (json) in VS code search bar above and edit settings.json file.
  you probably will have smth like that:

{
  "python.testing.pytestEnabled": true,
  "python.testing.unittestEnabled": false,
  "python.testing.pytestArgs": [
    "unit_tests"
  ],
  "python.envFile": "${workspaceFolder}/unit_tests/.pixi/envs"
}

remove .pixi in the path ("python.envFile": "${workspaceFolder}/unit_tests/envs") and try to run it again

or

if in your case .pixi folder is necessary try to create this folder and run script again
mkdir -p /Users/haohaiyu/git/ElegantRL/unit_tests/.pixi/envs

good luck bro
