The method each programmer uses to do this is a key part of that programmer's
proprietary technology that may give him/her an edge over the competitors.
Imagine that you could instantly get an exact measurement of the effects of a
change in algorithms/evaluation (this will never happen, of course). Then you
could try many more modifications in a given time.  Thus developing a reasonably
reliable way to measure the strength must be a crucial component of improving a
chess program over time.
