The module provides functions to handle the testset provided by LingPy. The current testset consists of test files stored in the folder lingpy/test/tests/. These files are formatted according to the requirements for the different methods. Each specific format comes along with a specific file extension. Currently, there are the following five extensions:
All these files can be easily accessed with help of some specific functions defined in this module.
get_file(filename) | Return a path to the filename in the testset. |
list_files(filetype[, dataset]) | List all files in the testset that correspond to a certain filetype. |
