- If this PR breaks any API (CLI arguments, config, function signature,
etc.), add `[BREAKING]` to the beginning of the title.

### Test

> For changes that can not be tested by CI (e.g., algorithm
implementation, new model support), validate by experiment(s) and show
results like training curve plots, evaluation results, etc.

Adds a unit tests to validate metric name cleanup

### API and Usage Example

> Demonstrate how the API changes if any, and provide usage example(s)
if possible.

```python
# Add code snippet or script demonstrating how to use this
```

Tests layout

Each folder under tests/ corresponds to a test category for a sub-namespace in verl. For instance:

  • tests/trainer for testing functionality related to verl/trainer
  • tests/models for testing functionality related to verl/models
  • ...

There are a few folders with special_ prefix, created for special purposes:

  • special_distributed: unit tests that must run with multiple GPUs
  • special_e2e: end-to-end tests with training/generation scripts
  • special_npu: tests for NPUs
  • special_sanity: a suite of quick sanity tests
  • special_standalone: a set of test that are designed to run in dedicated environments

Accelerators for tests

  • By default tests are run with GPU available, except for the ones under special_npu, and any test script whose name ends with on_cpu.py.
  • For test scripts with on_cpu.py name suffix would be tested on CPU resources in linux environment.

Workflow layout

All CI tests are configured by yaml files in .github/workflows/. Here's an overview of all test configs:

  1. A list of always triggered CPU sanity tests: check-pr-title.yml, secrets_scan.yml, check-pr-title,yml, pre-commit.yml, doc.yml
  2. Some heavy multi-GPU unit tests, such as model.yml, vllm.yml, sgl.yml
  3. End-to-end tests: e2e_*.yml
  4. Unit tests
  • cpu_unit_tests.yml, run pytest on all scripts with file name pattern tests/**/test_*_on_cpu.py
  • gpu_unit_tests.yml, run pytest on all scripts with file without the on_cpu.py suffix.
  • Since cpu/gpu unit tests by default runs all tests under tests, please make sure tests are manually excluded in them when
    • new workflow yaml is added to .github/workflows
    • new tests are added to workflow mentioned in 2.
