julia-chainrulestestutils 1.2.3 Common utilities used by downstream automatic differentiation tools
This package is designed to help in testing ChainRulesCore.frule and ChainRulesCore.rrule methods. The main entry points are ChainRulesTestUtils.frule_test, ChainRulesTestUtils.rrule_test, and ChainRulesTestUtils.test_scalar. Currently this is done via testing the rules against numerical differentiation (using FiniteDifferences.jl).
ChainRulesTestUtils.jl is separated from ChainRulesCore.jl so that it can be a test-only dependency, allowing it to have potentially heavy dependencies, while keeping ChainRulesCore.jl as light-weight as possible.
