[Insight-developers] Proposal: Adding ImageCheck class to Insight/Testing/Code/Common

[Luis Ibanez]

Hi Gaetan,

My recollection from our previous discussions on other
testing frameworks, is that they were too heavy to be
made part of ITK, and that they will overlap anyways
with existing functionalities of CMake and CTests.

Adding support classes for Testing to ITK, and adding
CMake support macros seems to be a more effective way
of improving the testing framework.

The classes that we are proposing here will fill up
that void of tools for domain-specific testing.

That being said,
This is just my recollection of the previous discussion.

I'm probably missing many factor here....
