There are two possibilities why you are seeing this error: a) the script
didn't find the andi program or b) out of bad luck. The second is easier
to fix, just replace the last line in run-unit-test by

RANDOM_SEED=123 ./test/*.sh

To fix a) the script low_homo.sh and the others have to know how to call
andi. At the moment the path is hard coded to ./src/andi (see low_homo
line 20). If you want to test the installed version of andi, you have to
remove the `./src/` part. This probably requires patching the source.
(Maybe one even has to add a magic switch to the scripts so they can
test either the installed or the just compiled andi.)
