Better tests for non-compositional solvers

As I suggested here: https://github.com/nengo/nengo/pull/1507#discussion_r258083118

Sometimes, we want to make a copy of a FrozenObject but change some specific parameter. It might be nice to have a `copy` function that will return a new FrozenObject...

We expect backend Simulators to use the same interface as our reference Simulator, including properties like `time`, `dt`, etc. Some of this is already tested. Most of the parts that...

Validating defaults is problematic

3

When we set defaults with the config system, we try to validate them. This is problematic when the validation uses the object instance in the validation. Here's an example with...

Remove special cases from Lowpass and Alpha synapses

1

With #588, the new `Lowpass` and `Alpha` classes have code in the `make_step` function to deal with `tau < 0.03 * dt` (we dealt with this special case in the...

Improve error messages

3

This comes out of concerns raised by @tbekolay in PR #355. The main suggestion is to append a notice to some/all error messages that points users to the Nengo issues...

PES post slicing does not work for list of indices

1

The fix in #1317 works if the post slice is a single index or ``slice`` object, but not if it is a list of indices. This is because the first...

I've encountered the error below. When building a model, one object in the model (a Node with a Conv2d process as output) could not be built due to the following...

This causes a regression in two benchmark tests: - net4: Random network with RectifiedLinear neurons - net6: LMU with eager mode off Two other benchmarks are adjusted slightly to re-center...

In the Keras-to-Loihi example, we currently have biases turned off for all the conv layers. Loihi can handle biases, so it would be nice to not have to do this....
