Hi,
Is there any way to make the tests force a certain default set of rcparams? When I first ran the test suite just now, I got a lot of image comparison failures because I have my default font set to 10 in my matplotlibrc. Changing this eliminated 13 of my 16 failures. I really don’t feel like having to edit my matplotlibrc every time I want to run the test suite.

the config system will pick up a matplotlibrc file in the current dir
if there is one, so perhaps we should drop the rc file assumed by the
tests into the dir from which they are run

Thanks, I wasn’t aware of that. It seems that if I just put an empty matplotlibrc file in that directory, it serves the same purpose. Can I just check that in (perhaps containing only a clarifying comment) so that it stays in sync with the current matplotlib defaults?

Not sure what is the best way here -- one is to put in an rc w/
everything uncommented for the tests, so that even if the mpl defaults
change the regression suite won't break. The other is to assume the
defaults in the test suite (empty rc) and if someone changes an rc
default it breaks the test suite. Perhaps James or Ted have a
view/preference?
