Overview:
Segway has an acceptance testing system that you can use by running
./test_all.sh. The test_all script will go into each test/ child directory and execute the script named ./run.sh if one exists.

Generally, each run.sh will run segway train and identify on a small dataset, then compare those results to a golden run in a touchstone/ directory. This test behavoir is not mandatory, and arbitrary tests may be added by creating a directory with a run.sh file. 

Golden Runs:
Segway produces some output that will change depending on the version,
the date, or randomly (UUIDs are used for each run). These golden runs
have been changed to be templates with regular expressions (regexes)
defining inexact matches. The regexes can be in filenames or file
contents, even if the file is gzipped, and take the form of
"(%<REGEX>%) where <REGEX> is a Python regular expression (usually
equivalent to a Perl-compatible regular expression). For example,
there is a file named
data/traindir/output/e/0/emt0.0.0.traindir.(%[0-9a-f]{32}%), and the
regular expression there allows any 32 hexadecimal digits, fitting the
UUID that is uniquely generated for each Segway run.
data/traindir/log/jobs.tab starts like this:

jobid	jobname	prog	num_segs	num_frames	maxvmem	cpu	exit_status
(%[0-9]+%)	emt0.0.0.traindir.(%[0-9a-f]{32}%)	gmtkEMtrainNew	4	184355	(%[0-9]+.[0-9]+%)	(%[0-9]+.[0-9]+%)	0

The parts of the line that can change on each run are substituted with
an escaped regular expression, and the deterministic parts will match
exactly only.

A unit test system is planned.
