This is a kind of roadmap and status of the tests (Allin's):
- There is the Test project provided by Allin it lives at https://github.com/HelioGuilherme66/gretl
(anyone can `git clone https://github.com/HelioGuilherme66/gretl.git` but you only need `gretl-tests/test-gretl` ) (sorry I have messed up the repository)

- We run `make` to generate the newout directory with the new installed Gretl, this is then compared with the output (from the baseline Gretl one year ago).
- Attached is the generated diff file.
- We can do some raw inspection (no statistical tests on it ;) ). For example I find really different the following result:
output/MK.out vs newout/MK.out:
46c46
< R-squared            0.557876   Adjusted R-squared   0.551707
---
> Uncentered R-squared 0.557876   Centered R-squared   0.154190

- The structure is only planned for Linuxes systems.
- There was no updates to the gretl scripts files,
- After the new release, we could do some maintenance of the gretl scripts, and update the baseline. I will also do a release of the testspackage, and so we can keep a progress of them (I am thinking in one year period).
- It is possible to do automated GUI tests, but please think well on what tests are needed, because they are "costly" to do.

If you have concrete proposals, you can create an Issue or a Pull Request (PR).
Or, just comment on this mailing list.

Thank you so much for this project!
