Testcases
LP-Testcases
The classical collection of mostly real-life problems is
at NETLIB. The
files
are compressed with a special utility (MPC), they need to be uncompressed
using
EMPS. Then they are in
MPS-format. The
original source for the files
and the (un)compress utilities is
netlib. See the
README.
A utility to convert MPS to and from
LP-format is available at
LP2MPS.
One can also retrieve the files in AMPL-format from
NETLIB_AMPL.
A comprehensive archive for files in different formats is the
COAP
collection.
Here is
another
large collection of mpc-compressed MPS files and
here and
here
are some additional files.
In practice often some or all of the variables are constrained to be
integer valued. Here is a collection of mixed integer linear
programming problems:
Testcases for MILP
Testcases for MIQP and MIQCP
Stochastic Programming Testcasesin
SMPS format
Testcases for transportation problems
Testcases for unconstrained
minimization
There are more codes for unconstrained problems in the general collections
listed below.

and

Testcases for general nonlinear
programming
The following collection is written in standard f77 with milstd1753
extensions.
It uses a problem formulation for nonlinear programming f(x)=min
subject to h(x)=0 and g(x)>=0, where h and g are general smooth vector
functions. there is also an interface for the format used e.g. by codes
like NPSOL, MINOS and SNOPT. The collection contains all examples of the
two collections assembled by Schittkowski resp. Hock and Schittkowski,
most
of Himmelblau and Dembo and some additional ones. The code DONLP2 solves
them all but (purposely) one successfully.

The error free formulation of large probems by direct coding in some
programming language is fatiguing. Special coding devices
are of great help here. The SIF (=standard input format) developed by
Conn,
Gould and Toint is one of them. The following collection contains nearly a
thousand problems (with the additional possibility to vary dimension)
coded
in SIF. The selection tool allows you to extract subcollections of
specific
properties.

AMPL and
GAMS are modelling languages which allow a user to formulate
problems in terms very near the original problem and transform this
into a format required by specific solvers via specialized interfaces
of which no knowledge is required by the user. They also provide
automatically
analytic derivatives.
