We need testing around ploidy

Open LiterallyUniqueLogin opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

Which tools can handle haploid data? (GangSTR is one) Are any of these tools not human specific and can handle ploidy >2?

For those cases we should add test cases to confirm our tools don't crash so we have issues like https://github.com/gymreklab/TRTools/issues/89 crop up.

HipSTR has an option --haploid-chrs to specify a chromosome as haploid. ExpansionHunter has an --sex option which I assume is used for ploidy of sex chromosomes. Agree we should add at least haploid/diploid example data files and to tests. I am not aware of any of these outputting ploidy >2.
