Why consider just one test problem?

Doing so you will always be in danger of having a system that
isn't truly general and is built for one specific kind of a task.

A better idea, I think, would be to test the system on *all* problems
that can be described in n bits or less (or use a large random sample
from this space). Then your system is gauranteed to be completely
general in a computational sense.
