Hello,
Now I have uploaded my implementation here:
https://sourceforge.net/p/octave/feature-requests/41/
I've noticed that a lot of function files have some kind of tests in the
end of the file. I guess that you use them to check that you haven't
introduced any logic error in the code when modifying it?
I did find this page: http://wiki.octave.org/Tests
But I guess I need to fake input from a fake file in some way, is there
anywhere I can read more on how to do that?
regards,
Erik
