Differential analysis of DFXML idifference2.py output
License: MIT

# Description

Differential analysis of DFXML idifference2.py output.

# Installation

`pip install evidence`

# Usage

**From command line:**

`python -m evidence --path PATH [--output OUTPUT] [--occurence OCCURENCE]`

| Option | Short | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
|--path | -p | String | - | Path to idifference output dir |
|--output | -o | String | output | Path to result dir |
|--occurence | -c | Int | 2 | The number of occurences in *.me to be used in ce processing |
|--noise | -n | String | noise | name of noise file |


# Example

Given the following files, where the first placeholer describes
the action and the secon placeholder describes the number of execution.

IMPORTANT: noise.1.idiff needs to exsist. It contains only information 
with no action applied. It is possible to provide a custom name for the 
noise file. 

```
ge/
    *.*.idiff
    noise.1.idiff
```

Important: the first placeholder is used as an identifier and must be
the same for each following execution. Example:

```
ge/
    a.1.idiff
    a.2.idiff
    a.3.idiff
    noise.1.idiff
```


`python -m evidence -p path/to/idifference2result`

```
