===== Feature Testing Screenshots =====
==== Image Comparison Programs Performance Testing ====

=== Before Testing ===

On week 4, we have found [[fyp:ik0903#image_comparison_reference|2 programs]] that should be suitable to be installed on the server for image comparison. Therefore on week 5, we tried to install the 2 programs and test their performance. By that time, we found that "[[http://linux.softpedia.com/get/Programming/Widgets/Perl-Modules/Image-Compare-43727.shtml|Compare]]" is a Perl script. Therefore we have only tested the program "[[http://www.marengo-ltd.com/open_source/index.php|jpegdiff]]".
