Contributing Unit Tests to OpenNLP

[Amir Deljouyi <am...@gmail.com>]

Hi OpenNLP maintainers,

I’m Amir Deljouyi, a PhD candidate at TU Delft. As part of my research on
testing NLP libraries, I’d like to contribute unit tests to help improve
coverage and reliability in OpenNLP, specifically Tools .

While exploring the codebase, I noticed that many classes currently lack
unit tests, and some of the existing manually written tests offer limited
coverage. I’d like to help strengthen the test suite by adding more
comprehensive tests.

I plan to submit small, focused pull requests that follow your existing
testing style and contribution guidelines.

Best regards,
Amir Deljouyi
