Colditz Test

A collection of 30 tests to identify tactical play strength. Originally written by Karl Colditz in the book "Lern-, Practice and Chess Combination Tests" (German) published by Falken Verlag. These tests are also well suited for testing the tactical strength of weaker chess computers. Each test is timed until the correct move is shown in the display of the computer using the chess computer's Analysis Level. If the correct move is displayed immediately, then the correct move needs to be observed for a little while longer (minimum 1 minute extra) in order to ensure that the move was not picked by chance. The highest amount of time allowed for each correct move solution is 30 minutes.
If the chess computer does not have a display, a more intensive test method will have to be used. The chess computer will try to play the correct move starting with Tournament Level. If the move is found/not found, then the position is replayed at a lower level/or a higher level. The lowest time for the correct move observed will be noted and used in this Test.
The times for all the tests are evaluated by the software program EloStatTS 1.0. 1800 ELO points are used as the "Start value". For every move not found there is a deduction of 10 points as shown in the list below (Column: LOW). In the above named book by Karl Colditz different score values are provided for each test dependant on level of difficulty, sorted and summed accordingly.

Instructions for: PGN File Times shown after the slash (/) were taken from CSS. Example: 'Mephisto II/1802-6.1MHz' 1200s / 25. Unfortunately these were not always complete. E.G. in CSS 1/84 the position # 101 showed only >10 Minutes for Mephisto II and III. In these situations an average/middle value was chosen. In this case 1200 seconds for both, since the solution showed a value between 600 and 1800 seconds. Hopefully the true values were not too badly corrupted because of this. It would be best to re-test any questionable results. Values after the slash (/) (as per above example # 25) show the original points á la Colditz. These are however irrelevant for an EloStatTS evaluation.
