Testing Unconstrained Optimization Software JORGE J. MORI~, BURTON S. GARBOW, and KENNETH E. HILLSTROM Argonne National Laboratory Much of the testing of optimization software is inadequate because the number of test functmns is small or the starting points are close to the solution. In addition, there has been too much emphasm on measurmg the efficmncy of the software and not enough on testing reliability and robustness. To address this need, we have produced a relatwely large but easy-to-use collection of test functions and designed gmdelines for testing the reliability and robustness of unconstrained optimization software. Key Words and Phrases: performance testing, systems of nonlinear equatmns, nonlinearleast squares, unconstrained minnmzation, optimizatmn software CR Categorms. 4.6, 5.15, 5.41 The Algorithm: FORTRAN Subroutines for Testing Unconstrained Optimizatmn Software. ACM Trans. Math. Software 7, 1 (March 1981), 136-140. 1. INTRODUCTION When an algorithm is presented in the optimization literature, it has usually been tested on a set of functions. The purpose of this testing is to show that the algorithm works and, indeed, that it works better than other algorithms in the same problem area. In our opinion these claims are usually unwarranted because it is often the case that there are
