Installation in Unix Systems

ASDF Version Manager

• Please follow the installation instructions outlined here
• Then proceed to install ruby plugin

Ruby (2.7.0 version)

• Install the version

$ asdf install ruby 2.7.0

• Set this version either as global or local

$ asdf global ruby 2.7.0

$ asdf local ruby 2.7.0

Required Gems

• Install the dependencies with

$ bundler install

Running

• You run the genetic algorithms with

$ ruby <algorithm> <path to ini test file(s)>

The available values for <algorithm> are tga, htga, cchtga, tga_knapsack and htga_knapsack

<path to ini test file(s)> is usually a .ini file or subdirectory in the test_cases/ directory

For example: $ ruby execute.rb htga test_cases/htga/f2_test.ini

• Running the tests

You go to each of the algorithms folders and execute: $ bundle exec cucumber
