Real Basic Fast Test for Joshua

[Lewis John Mcgibbney]

Hi Folsk,
Right now I am testing Joshua installation similar to the following example
http://joshua-decoder.org/6.0/quick-start.html
The only problem with this is that Homebrew Jenkins CI builds fail the build with a timeout issue. This is due to the following step taking quite a while

  cmd=java -d64 -Xmx10g -jar /usr/local/Cellar/joshua/6.0.5/libexec/lib/berkeleyaligner.jar ++alignments/0/word-align.conf

Does anyone have a better, QUICKER suggestion for testing that Joshua is installed. I am NOT talking about JUnit tests which can be invoked from Ant. Unit tests so not test the software is installed.

Thanks

Lewis

If I understand, this is an automated build test designed just to check whether Joshua is installed correctly? I'd suggest a much simpler test, such as running some or all of the tests under $JOSHUA/test.

e.g., "ant test" will run them all (this takes a few minutes to run)

Or you could just do something like

echo test | $JOSHUA/bin/joshua -v 0 -output-format %s -mark-oovs

which should output "test_OOV" if the decoder is working correctly.

ACK. This sounds much more reasonable.
The previous test was a bad boy.
