/**
 * 
 * Tests which cover the behaviour specified for a population.
 * 
 *  - A population should be able to return parents and offspring separately. 
 *  - It should be possible to iterate through all the chromosomes in a population
 *    with one indexing system - parents then offspring.
 *  - When constructed with no arguments, it should generate populationSize
 *    random chromosomes, distributed according to the EA parameters.
 *  - If one or more chromosomes are passed into the constructor, it should use them
 *    as parents to create the rest of the population.
