Analysis benchmark

The purpose of this option is to test the stability of most of the analysis provided by the running version of nMOLDYN versus the results produced by the intensively tested version 2.2.5. As nMOLDYN is an open source program, this option can be interesting for experienced users that may have brought some changes in a given analysis and that would like to insure that its scientific contents is still valid. Pressing the Analysis benchmark button will pop up the dialog shown on figure 4.69

From this dialog, one can select on the left panel one or many analysis benchmarks. If you want more information about the contents of a given benchmark, right-click on one of the benchmark. This will pop up a small informative dialog. Pressing the OK button will run the benchmark. Depending on the selected analysis, you may wait a little bit before the results will be displayed on the right panel with a detailed statistics about the tests that have been run and the results obtained (e.g. number of tests run, percentage of success, time taken for the benchmark ...). For the tests that failed, clicking on the test number will pop up a window where the settings for the current version and the reference version are displayed for comparison.

The currently available benchmarks are:
