Batch testing of core ranking routines: 
   readRankings, validDescription, calcNewRank, and getChoice 
but excluding writeRankings and runMatchup 
 
Makes use of files in tests subdirectory: 
   posted, single, pair, nodesc, norank, badrank, nothing 
(recommend copying originals from subdirectory orig into tests before each run) 
   e.g. cp orig/* tests/. 
 
 
Note that these tests are customized specifically for the sample solution 
   rankings functions, and would likely need customization to be suitable 
   for the specific collection of functions in other (student) solutions
