unit testing

[DirkEilander]

it's obvious we need unit testing. so just do it!

• Update model_test_data and remove unnecessary files (esp. forcing)

• Make unit tests for coupled and stand-alone BMI runs (@DirkEilander ), working with lean model test data repos

• Clean up "tests" folder

• Copy lean version of model_test_data/test_Elbe to glofrim

@DirkEilander @hii600
I have removed some 47 files from the model_test_data repository in a new branch named "lean".

PCR forcing is therefore not available anymore and needs to be provided via BMI.

We need to distinguish between unit testing and integration/regression testing. Right now the tests are using the unit testing framework but are mostly doing integration tests.

@DirkEilander
just checking - do we need this issue still as we already have implemented some water balance checks for the water volume exchange between models?

[DirkEilander]

yes. this is all but finished...
