A couple of answers.

1.  Until fairly recently, Crafty was not 'auto232 compatible' which
means their automatic testing methodology didn't work.

2.  They have primarily tested commercial programs, although there are
a couple of exceptions.

Hopefully this will change before long, as I can now write CDRom's with
all the book stuff and so forth set up and "ready to play" and be sure
that
it is using a reasonable opening book with pre-learned opening
selections
already set and ready to go...
