Extends multi-messenger framework with support for simultaneously fitting host galaxy and transient components in spectroscopy. This addresses the critical issue of host galaxy contamination in transient spectroscopy. New content: - examples/joint_galaxy_transient_spectrum_example.py (400+ lines) * Demonstrates combined model approach (observed = galaxy + transient) * Shows parameter biases when galaxy is ignored * Includes comparison of biased vs. unbiased fits * Covers advanced topics: emission lines, systematic checks * Complete workflow with best practices Documentation updates (docs/multimessenger.txt): - New "Joint Galaxy and Transient Spectrum Analysis" section * Why host contamination matters (bias in parameters) * Combined model approach with code examples * Setting up priors for galaxy and transient parameters * Comparison with transient-only fits * Adding galaxy emission lines (H-alpha, H-beta, [OIII]) * Best practices: pre-explosion data, model selection * Common applications: SNe, TDEs, kilonovae, AGN - Updated Examples section to reference new example Key use cases: - Supernova spectroscopy (especially SNe Ia in bright galaxies) - Tidal disruption events (TDEs in galaxy centers) - Any transient with significant host contamination - Separating transient from AGN or stellar contributions This complements the existing spectrum+photometry joint fitting, providing comprehensive spectroscopic analysis capabilities.
…fitting Extends test coverage for multi-messenger framework with two new test classes: 1. JointGalaxyTransientSpectrumTest (14 tests) - Combined model creation and output validation - Likelihood creation with galaxy+transient models - Likelihood evaluation with correct parameters - Comparison showing transient-only model gives biased results - Prior setup for joint galaxy+transient parameters - Integration with MultiMessengerTransient custom likelihoods - Gaussian emission line modeling (H-alpha, H-beta, etc.) - Galaxy model with emission lines - Shared redshift constraint validation - Component decomposition extraction - Flux ratio calculations - Multiple spectra at different epochs with evolving transient 2. SpectrumPhotometryJointFittingTest (4 tests) - Verifies spectrum and photometry are different data types - Creating separate likelihoods for different data types - Combining likelihoods using bilby.JointLikelihood - MultiMessengerTransient integration with custom likelihoods Tests validate: - Model correctness and parameter inference - Likelihood computation and evaluation - Prior sampling and constraints - Component separation and flux ratios - Time evolution of transient vs. constant galaxy - Integration with bilby infrastructure All tests use synthetic data to ensure reproducibility and fast execution.
The test was failing because the wavelength array doesn't have an exact point at the emission line center, causing the peak amplitude to be less than the input amplitude. Changed assertion from exact match (20 decimal places) to a range check: peak must be >50% of input (reasonable for any grid spacing) and <=100% (Gaussian peak is at center).

Adds 30+ new tests to significantly increase code coverage of the multimessenger.py module. New test classes: 1. MultiMessengerCoreFunctionalityTest (24 tests) - _build_likelihood_for_messenger() with callable/string models - Invalid model names and unsupported likelihood types (error paths) - Different likelihood types (GaussianLikelihoodQuadratureNoise) - fit_joint() with single/multiple likelihoods (mocked sampler) - fit_joint() with external likelihoods (GW, neutrino) - fit_joint() with dict priors (not PriorDict) - fit_joint() error handling (no likelihoods) - fit_joint() default outdir and label - fit_joint() metadata verification - fit_individual() with multiple messengers - fit_individual() missing model/prior handling - fit_individual() default outdir - UV and infrared transient support - Neutrino likelihood support - Removing nonexistent messengers 2. CreateJointPriorAdvancedTest (3 tests) - Multiple shared parameters - Empty individual priors - Shared params not in any messenger Key improvements: - Uses mocking to test fit methods without actual sampling - Tests error handling and edge cases - Covers all likelihood types - Tests metadata construction - Tests default parameter handling - Covers UV, infrared, and neutrino messengers This should bring code coverage for multimessenger.py to >90%.
Adds EdgeCasesAndWarningsTest class with 25 new tests covering: - Time error handling in likelihood building - Warning paths for missing models/priors - Single likelihood warnings - Shared parameter logging - Callable model metadata - Directory creation - All logger info/warning calls
Adds RealCodePathsTest class with 10 new tests using actual Transient objects instead of mocks to ensure real code execution: - Custom likelihoods dict update path - String model name lookup in model library - None entries filtering in messengers dict - JointLikelihood construction verification - All sampler parameter passing - Full EM messenger type initialization (optical, xray, radio, uv, infrared) Total: 90 tests, 2135 lines
Include the new multimessenger test file in the CI test group 4 so that coverage is reported to Coveralls.
Use sigma_i instead of sigma for GaussianLikelihoodQuadratureNoise as per its __init__ signature.

The coverage was showing zero because the workflow was trying to combine XML reports instead of .coverage database files. This commit fixes the issue by: 1. Saving .coverage database files from each test group with unique names 2. Downloading all .coverage.* files in the coverage job 3. Using 'coverage combine' to properly merge the database files 4. Generating a combined XML report from the merged data 5. Uploading the combined report to Coveralls This ensures that coverage from all 4 test groups is properly combined and reported to Coveralls.
Changed the approach to download artifacts into a dedicated directory instead of using merge-multiple to avoid coverage.xml files overwriting each other. Now we: 1. Download all artifacts to coverage-artifacts/ directory 2. Find all .coverage.* files recursively 3. Copy them to the working directory 4. Combine them properly Added debug output to help diagnose any remaining issues.
Added detailed debugging to identify why .coverage files aren't being found: Test stage: - List all files after pytest to see what's created - Add error checking if .coverage file doesn't exist - Fail fast with clear error message Coverage stage: - Show contents of each artifact directory - List all files recursively in artifacts - Better error handling Upload stage: - Added if-no-files-found: error to catch upload failures early This will help diagnose whether the issue is with: 1. .coverage file creation by pytest 2. File upload to artifacts 3. File download from artifacts
The issue was that .coverage.* files weren't being uploaded when specified in a multi-line path. Fixed by: 1. Splitting upload into two separate steps: - coverage-xml-N for XML reports - coverage-db-N for .coverage database files 2. Each upload has if-no-files-found: error for immediate failure detection 3. Download only coverage-db-* artifacts (we don't need XMLs) 4. Added verbose flag (-v) to cp command for better debugging This ensures .coverage files are properly uploaded and downloaded for combining into the final coverage report.
The issue was that pytest-cov wasn't creating the .coverage database file. Fixed by: 1. Using --cov-report= (empty) to force database creation without generating any report during pytest 2. Running 'coverage xml' separately to generate the XML report from the .coverage database 3. Added explicit check to fail early if .coverage file doesn't exist This ensures the .coverage database file is always created, which is required for combining coverage across test groups.
After reviewing coverage.py documentation, the correct approach is: 1. Create .coveragerc with parallel=True - This makes coverage automatically create .coverage.* files with unique suffixes (hostname.pid.random) 2. Run pytest-cov normally - With parallel=True in config, it automatically creates .coverage.* files instead of a single .coverage file 3. Upload .coverage.* files - No manual renaming needed 4. Run 'coverage combine' without arguments - It automatically finds and combines all .coverage.* files in the current directory Changes: - Added .coveragerc with parallel=True configuration - Removed manual file renaming in test jobs - Simplified artifact upload to just .coverage.* files - Fixed coverage combine to run without arguments as documented Reference: https://coverage.readthedocs.io/en/latest/cmd.html#combining-data-files-coverage-combine
The .coverage.* files weren't being uploaded because they start with a dot, making them hidden files. The upload-artifact@v4 action has include-hidden-files: false by default. Added include-hidden-files: true to the upload step to ensure .coverage.* files are included in the artifact.
Key insight from pytest-cov docs: pytest-cov overrides the parallel option, so .coveragerc with parallel=True doesn't work as expected. Instead: 1. Each test job runs pytest-cov which creates a plain .coverage file 2. Upload each .coverage file as a separate artifact 3. Download artifacts (each in its own directory) 4. Copy and rename .coverage files to .coverage.1, .coverage.2, etc. 5. Run coverage combine to merge them This follows how pytest-cov actually works rather than trying to force parallel mode which pytest-cov doesn't use.
This test file was being run in the original workflow but was missing from the parallel test groups, causing the 5% coverage drop from 88% to 83%. Added test/test_on_ref_results.py to Group 4 to restore full coverage.
The old workflow didn't have this file and achieved 88% coverage. pytest-cov overrides the parallel option anyway, making this file unnecessary and potentially causing the coverage discrepancy.
