NHERI-SimCenter/pelicun: v3.8.1

Changed

Enhanced DLML Test Suite: A complete overhaul of the test suite for the DLML module to improve reliability and test coverage:

• Replaced brittle, unit-style tests with a new suite of robust integration and end-to-end tests.
• Added a new end-to-end test using a local HTTP server (pytest-httpserver) to simulate the entire download workflow, ensuring high confidence in the process.
• Overhauled network mocks to be more realistic, allowing for more accurate validation of download behavior.

Improved DLML Module Configuration:

• Refactored the module to resolve all configuration from environment variables at runtime, significantly improving testability and isolation.

DLML Data:

• Updated the default data version for the Damage and Loss Model Library to v2.1.0.

Dependencies:

• Added pytest-httpserver as a new development dependency to support the enhanced end-to-end testing.

Fixed

DLML Robustness and Reliability:

• Increased network timeouts for file downloads to prevent errors on slower connections.
• Improved the reliability of the recommended dlml update command shown to users, ensuring it works correctly on all platforms, especially those with spaces in the Python path.

Developer Experience:

• Performed a comprehensive code quality pass on the entire test suite, standardizing docstrings, adding complete type hints, and improving code style for better maintainability.
• Made the main CLI script directly executable to simplify development and debugging workflows.
