TEST: develop unified test suite #6

Open sglyon opened 11 years ago

albop commented 10 years ago

What do you mean by unified ? Is it common to Python and Julia ?

sglyon commented 10 years ago

I meant to say that we should have the same tests written for both languages. "unified" was probably the wrong word to use in that context

albop commented 10 years ago

I see. There is always the option to test the results of one language against the other. That's not a proof of correctness though if both are not written independently.

I think our hope is to test them against each other as they get developed to make sure they maintain parallel development.
