b2btest audio - Audio file plugin for b2btest





This package adds audio file support to b2btest.
b2btest is a tool to automate tests that compare results
to some previous ones, and this plugin,
is helpful to compare audiofiles in a sensible way.
See b2btest README
for a deeper discussion on why you should avoid back-to-back testing,
although sometimes it is the lesser evil way to proceed.
This plugin handles audiofiles specially in several ways:

Instead of doing a text or byte difference, it interprets the audio contents and compares them sample by sample.
It considers two outputs to be different if:

Metadata differs
Sample-by-sample differs relative to the audio level


In the case of differences, it generates a diff audio by substracting both waves sample by sample.

By means of python-wavefile, it supports floating point samples, and multichannel waves.
How to install
Just use:
$ pip install b2btest_audio

Dependencies
This plugin requires the wavefile module,
which in turn requires having libsndfile library installed in your system.
Back2Back testing of cli programs
When you are testing back-to-back the output of a command line,
you define a yaml file like this (name it b2bcases.yaml).
#!/usr/bin/env back2back

datapath: "b2bdata" # Point it to the directory containing your reference data
testcases:

Generate1KHzSine:
command: sox -n /tmp/sine.wav synth 1.0 sine 1000.0
outputs:
- /tmp/sine.wav

Ouputs with supported audio file extension will be recognize
and this plugin diff will be used for them.
See [b2btest] documentation on how to use this file.
Command line tool
The package also provides a diffaudio CLI tool to generate the audio difference
