https://software.broadinstitute.org/software/igv/BAM One of the many reads from a high-throughput sequencing machine (pre-Nanopore this was 30, 70 or 144 nucleotides in length, since the nanopore we are talking about 10^6 "basepairs" that are continuously sequenced) is just a series of characters. For every such read you want to know where in the reference genome it likely was sequenced from, how the quality was at different parts of the read and how well it matches against a reference genome. bowtie http://bowtie-bio.sourceforge.net/manual.shtml gets reads as input, writes SAM which are converted to BAM via "samtools view". There is loads of public data out there that we could use for testing purposes. As long as we can automate the generation of such a Debian Med Testing Environment from public data - there is no need to have everything that we test on as a Debian package, right? Best, Steffen
