test_limbFinding.test_module(show_plots, image, blur, cannyLow, cannyHigh, saveImage)[source]

Unit test for Limb Finding. The unit test specifically runs on 3 images:

  1. A full Mars: This image has an easy to detect, full mars disk

  2. A crescent Mars: This image only contains a slim Mars crescent

  3. Moons: This image contains several Moon crescents

The Limb Finding module uses the Canny transform in order to find the planet limb. It then outputs all the points on the limb.
