Re: New Test Addition To Autotest

Hello Ben,
 
Sorry it's going to be around Monday instead. I'm somewhat out of practice and under-estimated the time, but am nearly done at this point.
 
After looking at the files in your repository what I'm doing is writing a c file which will automatically generate a series of autotest files similar to oneway.at except the data will be off the Nist web site. The file connects to the Nist web site via a socket reads their *.dat files, parses it, pulling the data and makes a new (in the case of anova tests) onewayX.at file using this data. So this c file is more like an installation progam to only be run once (before autotest) to generate all the *.at files and update the local relevant automake file.
 
There are a lot of data files on the site and I thought that automating the *.at file making process for this task would not only reduce errors but put in place a framework to run nist data through additional functionality that might be added at a later date. Plus, on a more selfish note, it's great programming practice for me.
 
Regards,
 
Selma
