mafft for Debian
----------------

The mafft program is tested when we assemble our binary packages in our build
network. The following commands are run and compared to a reference output:

mafft                               test/sample | diff test/sample.fftns2 -
mafft --maxiterate 100              test/sample | diff test/sample.fftnsi -
mafft --globalpair                  test/sample | diff test/sample.gins1 -
mafft --globalpair --maxiterate 100 test/sample | diff test/sample.ginsi -
mafft --localpair                   test/sample | diff test/sample.lins1 -
mafft --localpair --maxiterate 100  test/sample | diff test/sample.linsi -

The test sample and the reference output are distributed compressed in the
mafft binary package in the ‘/usr/share/doc/mafft/test’ directory. You can copy
this directory to a temporary place, uncompress the files and run the above
commands to reproduce the tests on your local installation.
