testGagglePackage

There are five data types supported in the Gaggle:
 <ol>
<li> nameLists
 </li>
<li> matrices
 </li>
<li> networks
 </li>
<li> tuples (environments in R)
 </li>
<li> clusters (typically, row names and associated column names, selecting a submatix)
 </li>
</ol> A good test of an installation, therfore, is to send each of these data types from R to
 an &#145;echo goose&#146;, and to make sure that the returned 
 data is identical to that which was sent out. This function loads the
 <code>RUnit</code> package, assumes that a boss and echo goose are running
 and properly configured, then calls one function for each data type. Procedure:
 <ol>
<li> Browse to http://gaggle.systemsbiology.net/projects/rValidation
 </li>
<li> start the Gaggle Boss
 </li>
<li> start the echo goose
 </li>
<li> (back in R): testGagglePackage ()
 </li>
</ol>
