Informal tests of surveyCV using the Auto dataset

Cole Guerin, Thomas McMahon, Jerzy Wieczorek

Informally test our various CV functions on the ISLR::Auto dataset using SRS-CV, clustered-CV, and stratified-CV.
(We are arbitrarily using year as either clusterID or stratumID.)

Just run the functions on a somewhat arbitrary dataset to ensure that the output format is what we’re looking for, and that the output is roughly consistent across the different functions that are doing the same thing.

cv.svy()

Tests that we expect should fail

# Should stop early because method isn't linear or logistic
try(cv.svy(Auto, "mpg~horsepower+I(horsepower^2)+I(horsepower^3)",
           nfolds = 10,
           method = "abcde"))
## Error in match.arg(method) : 'arg' should be one of "linear", "logistic"
# Should try to run but crash because response variable isn't 0/1
try(cv.svy(Auto, "mpg~horsepower+I(horsepower^2)+I(horsepower^3)",
           nfolds = 10,
           method = "logistic"))
## Error in eval(family$initialize) : y values must be 0 <= y <= 1
