Hi @jorgeg, I wasn’t aware of the newsletter until today and will certainly subscribe to it.

Not sure if it’s what you’re looking for, but I’ve published a series of articles on refactoring a custom Fortran “check” program, which eventually leads to the design and redesign of a small test framework. You’ll find the articles on my website. This is part 1: Fortran - Testing - Improving temporary test programs | Matthias Noback

I like the idea of

subroutine assert_equals(expected, actual, epsilon)

but not that the third argument is called epsilon because it would often not be the intrinsic function called epsilon. How about calling it tolerance or deviation or max_error instead?

Thanks for your feedback! That’s a great idea, I’ll fix that.
