## 4 Different runs are tested:
#   (1) Typical
#   (2) HRF
#   (3) Subgrouping
#   (4) Latent Variables

## Each run has 2 tests:
#   (1) The "expect_equal" line tests that the beta estimates for the current 
# version are equal to the path estimates from the source of truth version, with
# a tolerance of 1e-5 (i.e. differences smaller than 1e-5 are ignored)
#   (2) The "expect_identical" line tests that the paths recovered by the
# current version are the same as the paths recovered by the source of truth
# version.
# 
# ## The "source of truth" version is the version of GIMME on CRAN as of Oct 2023.
