Notes for dev/test.
Basic testing instructions, starting from scratch


Change directory to the local repository
>cd resynthesizerJulia


Run a file that contains a testset

Test fidelity of the algorithm to the original, using 2D image
>julia --project=test test/resynthesizer.jl

Test over many dimensions and element types
>julia --project=test test/dimensions.jl




Run a specific test program in the REPL with debugging:
(Use "Main", not "all".  "all" will debug Julia modules also.
"Main" signifies the main module that you are writing,
even if it is not declared a module per se.)

julia> ENV["JULIA_DEBUG"] = Main
julia> include("test/1D/tiny.jl")
julia> test(text,mask)




???  Activate the test project from the REPL in pkg mode
>julia
julia>]
pkg> activate test



From the REPL

Install julia

Start REPL

install packages,
or use a package.toml ???
(installs many supporting packages)

>import Pkg; Pkg.add("ReferenceTests")
>import Pkg; Pkg.add("TestImages")
>import Pkg; Pkg.add("ImageMagick")
>import Pkg; Pkg.add("ColorTypes")

Import the test framework
> using ReferenceTests
(compiles a long time)

Run the test suite by name
@testset "Resynthesizer"
