test_map_elites.cpp takes a lot of time

[vassilisvas]

When building the module, the test takes a lot of time.

I suggest the following changes:
line 76: SFERES_ARRAY(size_t, behav_shape, 128, 128);
line 83: SFERES_CONST size_t nb_gen = 1001;
line 84: SFERES_CONST size_t dump_period = 100;

What do you think?

I think we should make it optional. Just like I did in sferes: https://github.com/sferes2/sferes2/blob/master/wscript#L85

I will do it..

At a certain time we had a "./waf check" command that was running the
tests. It looks more appropriate to me (it is more like 'make check').

What do you think?

Making it optional or doing a "./waf check" is fine with me.

I still think though that we could do the changes I mentioned, because MAP-Elites produces results that are "good enough": the Rastrigin function can be visualized as you can see below, without needing too much computation time. If one wants a higher resolution "picture" then s/he could make the appropriate changes.

The option is whether we should build the tests or not. The weird thing in the new waf build version is that you have to run the tests once they are built. Maybe we can disable it and just run them when we want.. I will look into it..

I am totally ok with it.. It's just a test..
