[gmx-developers] Testing whole analysis output files

[David van der Spoel]

Hi,

I'm trying to write a test for the output files generated in my energy 
patch. However, the checkOutputfiles() compares files as blocks of 
strings, which is not useful for floating point numbers. Is there a 
simple way of testing such files as a bunch of numbers with a tolerance? 
I looked in the trajectoryanalysis/tests but did not find anything 
helpful there (or did not comprehend what is being done).

Thanks,
