[Insight-developers] call for help from a TCL developer to write a small script in TCL to run WrapITK's TCL tests

[Gaetan Lehmann]

Hi,

In order to improve WrapITK quality, I'm writing test drivers to run the  
tests in WrapITK [1].
Basically, a test driver set some environment variables, run the test  
program, run ImageCompare [5] to be sure the images produced are correct,  
and return 0 if everything goes write, or an error code if the test  
program or ImageCompare has returned an error.
The driver should be able to take several option --compare img1 img2, so  
if a test program produce several images, they can all be validated.
A typical run can be:

   /usr/bin/tcl tclTestDriver.tcl \
        Test.tcl in.png out1.png out2.png param1 param2 \
        --compare out1.png ref1.png \
        --compare out2.png ref2.png

To be sure that the tests will be runnable, the test drivers are wrote in  
the target language. The python [2] and java [3] test drivers are ready,  
but my lack of knowledge of tcl prevent me to write the tcl test driver.  
The current program used to run tcl [4] tests is wrote in bash - so it  
will fail on windows - and is not able to run ImageCompare

Any help from a tcl developer to write this small tcl script would be  
highly appreciated !

Thanks,

Gaetan
