I didn't see any test data anywhere, but I've just been making my own test data...that's what I would recommend doing. Just pick some random numbers and a random answer...if the algorithm is good enough, it'll find it. My algorithm is rather crappy, and most random groups of numbers that I have tried have been solvable (as long as it's under about 30 of them, above that and you get a bit trickier). If you want to test a long string of numbers, I would suggest just making a larger problem that you know is solvable (ie, calculate an answer with 50 numbers using a random arrangement of operations). If you really want, I can post some of my own test data...
