Table 2. List of tests included in the FFEA tests suite.

test name brief description
test_rngStream unit tests on the random number generator
test_volume the intersection volume of two tetrahedra is checked against a known geometry
test_script_loader test of the input file reader for the “runner”.
python_load_trajectory test of loading a trajectory using the ffeatools.
restart_check restart check proving that the RNG used to simulate the thermal noise is used safely
precomp_check calculate the energy for a number of beads interacting through
pre-computed potentials and compare it with the value obtained using Gromacs [36].
sphere_mass showing correct distribution of thermal energy for the Langevin scheme
sphere_nomass showing correct distribution of thermal energy for the Brownian scheme
sphere_diffusion_mass showing correct diffusional properties for the Langevin scheme
sphere_diffusion_nomass showing correct diffusional properties for the Brownian scheme
cyl_youngs_mod mechanical stretching of a cylindrical beam
cyl_flexrig mechanical bending of a cylindrical beam
steric_n_springs test of springs and steric interactions

Tests explained in detail in the main text.
