Tool to create test suites?

[David Dahlem]

I recall reading a post about a tool that would parse a pgn collection and select moves to create a test suite. But i don't remember which thread it was in, and i can't find it again.

Can anyone refresh my memory, or advise of such a tool?

Thanks
Dave

There was tool made by Walter Eigenmann that did something like that.

Also there is....

Is that what you mean?

I'll search for the tool by Walter Eigenmann, thanks.

The link you provided is to a page of links. So i have no idea what you're referring to.

Just as well I'm not so lazy or something else.

Maybe that will do it. Walter or no Walter.

pgn2fen simply converts "all" moves in a pgn to epd, not what i was asking for, Thanks anyway.

Which moves do you want then? The final position in each game only? If so, that is what Walter's tool does IIRC and you will have to look for it.

Google is your friend.

Naturally, i want positions and moves that make good test positions. I'm sure i read about such a tool in the last few days, but can't find it now. Perhaps it was in one of the deleted threads, but i'm still looking.

the pgn must contains scores and depth from the engines though...

No. For sure it's not in there. There is only napalm in there.

Thanks. That looks more like what i'm looking for, although i think it only uses the Winboard debug file, and i don't use the WB interface. I'll check it out anyway.
