<pre>The test ArrayFunctionsTest::testArrayFormulasFODS (files
sc/qa/unit/functions_test.cxx, sc/qa/unit/functions_array.cxx) fails the test
document sc/qa/unit/data/functions/array/fods/linest.fods. Opening the files in
sc/qa/unit/data/functions/array/fods/ reveals also that the file logest.fods
also fails (the others do not fail for me).
Error message in the compile run (Note that 1 = TRUE, 0 = FALSE in the
document)
functions_test.cxx:43:Assertion
Test name: ArrayFunctionsTest::testArrayFormulasFODS
double equality assertion failed
- Expected: 1
- Actual : 0
- Delta : 1e-14
The issue seems to be (again) floating point precision. Indeed, I've compiled
LibreOffice with FMA (fused multiply-add) instructions, if I disable them, i.e.
passing -ffp-contract=off to the compiler, then the tests succeed. Note that
FMA has slightly different floating point precision than ordinary plus and mult
[0, 1].
Mentionable commits:
* Add logest.fods test:

* Add linest.fods test:

* Disable tests on 32-bit x86-linux due to floating point weirdness:
