The priority is to solve the position as fast as possible, nodes to solution is a direct measure of that. If you measure nodes to ply 10, what does that say? It doesn't say a lot, I can get to ply 10 in 124 nodes, but the program won't be any good. So you need confirmation that you didn't wreck it by running the test suite. Instead of having the test suite be an indirect verification test, why not use it directly? -S. PS. Nice article and keep 'em comming, I'll try it out sometime :)
