investigate huge floating point errors in (flaky) tests

Open sfindeisen opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

Depending on the architecture and/or platform, we're sometimes getting test errors like:

FAIL (31.18s)
      test/common/TestMnistFCNN.hs:132:
      expected: 0.8991
       but got: 0.7424999999999999
      Use -p '/2 artificial 5 4 3 2 1 5 4 3 2 2393 1.0/' to rerun this test only.

This difference is huuge.

Let's try to investigate this and possibly also other similar test cases, understand what is going on, then fix the test case and/or the implementation.
