This PR replaces the original RABIT implementation with a new one, which has already been partially merged into XGBoost. The new one features: - Federated learning for both CPU and GPU. - NCCL. - More data types. - A unified interface for all the underlying implementations. - Improved timeout handling for both tracker and workers. - Exhausted tests with metrics (fixed a couple of bugs along the way). - A reusable tracker for Python and JVM packages.
This folder contains test cases for XGBoost c++ core, Python package and some other CI facilities.
Directories
- ci_build: Test facilities for Jenkins CI and GitHub action.
- cli: Basic test for command line executable
xgboost. Most of the other command line specific tests are in Python testtest_cli.py. - cpp: Tests for C++ core, using Google test framework.
- python: Tests for Python package, demonstrations and CLI. For how to setup the
dependencies for tests, see conda files in
ci_build. - python-gpu: Similar to python tests, but for GPU.
- travis: CI facilities for Travis.
- test_distributed: Test for distributed systems including spark and dask.
Others
