Comparing outputs from different runs on same dataset.

[a...@secondgenome.com]

Hi, I'm trying to write unit tests for a script I've written that calls Prodigal. My unit tests will require that I compare the contents of the output files from Prodigal. I wish to compare outputs from different runs of the same input data, however I can't do this since the output contents will differ per execution of Prodigal. How can I rectify this issue?

Not sure I'm following.  If you run prodigal multiple times on the same input file, you should get identical results.
