I haven't tried any of the tests yet, because I am not at home with my fast connection these days, so I haven't yet downloaded the 5 man TB's. When I get home I will try them. What I am really hoping for, besides positions that can "only" be solved by programs with TB's, is test positions that will catch typical errors, such as having converted the mate score from the TB's wrongly or having dealed with en passant the wrong way etc. /David
