Tests general
The general test section launch all the test. Set base arguments as the time for calculation (tf), the time step for numerical integration (dt), the initial velocity for computation (v0), the slope angle in radian (angle) and the error for the pass fail test.
The test general input file must have following format.
You can download the template file and save it to your workspace. The content of this file is shown hereafter.
