How do I set environment for the test

1. Install Anaconda
2. Follow the following

• on Linux pip install numpy pulls 1.19.4 that was somewhere mentioned to create bugs with openpiv
• note that in the example the master should be replaced with remove_capping or normalized_correlation or if the previous version needed, use pip install openpiv==0.22.3
• use nb_conda to be sure that the kernel you load in Jupyter is test_robustness. @alexlib I find this point sometimes confusing.
• we also install watermark to keep the info about the setup in the Jupyter notebook, read here https://github.com/rasbt/watermark

  conda create -n test_robustness python=3.8
  conda activate test_robustness
  conda install numpy
  pip install -e git+https://github.com/openpiv/openpiv-python@master#egg=openpiv-python
  conda install jupyterlab
  conda install nb_conda 
  pip install watermark
  jupyter lab

3. In the Jupyter notebook always start with:

    # %load_ext watermark # if it's a first time
    %reload_ext watermark # else
    %watermark -v -m -p numpy,openpiv -g -b
