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`
<
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!
