This test case ensures that the Python bindings of NEURON simulator function correctly on install.

Setup

  1. Run a current Fedora release: even a virtual machine is OK.
  2. Install nest: sudo dnf install neuron.
  3. If testing an update, please ensure that the build in the update is being installed: sudo dnf --enablerepo=updates-testing install neuron.

How to test

  1. In a terminal, invoke the neuron command line interpreter: nrniv (hit ctrl D to exit)
  2. In a terminal, invoke the neuron GUI: nrngui (hit ctrl D to exit)
  3. Follow the introductory tutorial: https://neuron.yale.edu/neuron/static/docs/elementarytools/intro.htm

Expected Results

  1. You should see NEURON's oc interpreter.
  2. You should see NEURON's oc interpreter and the GUI controller.
  3. You should be able to run the example simulation and see the graph provided in the documentation.
