Extending Fitting Results class

The FittingResult class is used to store values from the benchmarking that are required for the fitting reports. If this needs to be extended to allow for additional statistics or improved outputs the following should be considered:

• All FittingResult attributes required for reports should be saved with the checkpointer (Checkpoint). Care should be taken to add any attributes in the appropriate add_result/add_problem method to save the value and the load method to read the value back in.

• Any calculations should be performed when initialising the FittingResult. This reduces runtime in total for any regenerated reports.

• The checkpointer uses pickle. All data that is passed via this to the reports will need to be compatible with pickle.
