Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
The current installation approach in CONTRIBUTING.md does not work.
It says to run:
Then "pytest can be run":
This is false, as not even pytest is installed with the
environment.yml
!Packages that are missing
Describe the solution you'd like
Add a
dev-environment.yml
with the aforementioned and base packages.Describe alternatives you've considered
An alternative is to expand
environment.yml
, but this would install lots of unnecessary stuff for users that clone the latest main. A question, however, is how many users will clone the latest main? One? Two? Perhaps it's okay to just have one environment file! Dependencies are already defined in four places, so one more would be quite annoying:My preferred fix
Add the development dependencies to
environment.yml
