<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm working on a patch that will batch test
most of the code in libspeex. Here's the process (Feel free to suggest changes)
:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>1. Download the representative sample with wget, if
it does not exist. Currently it's <A
href="http://www.rational.co.za/speexTest16.wav">www.rational.co.za/speexTest16.wav</A>
It contains a male voice, a female voice, background noise and
music.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>2. Run the various testenc programs.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>3. Generate a short report with SNR and speed
results.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>4. If SNR is lower than say 10, indicate
failure.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It will probably only run under linux (and perhaps
cygwin), but such is life.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>This process can then be used to make answer many
questions :</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Is</FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2> the noise
introduced by moving to fixed point is significant ?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Is the 'double's slower than 'floats'
?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>etc.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV></BODY></HTML>
