Of course, runtimes need to be practical.

Sounds good! For testing optical-to-electrical kind of operations, one idea is to sample the electrical target space, and reverse the reference transform to come up with the test input values. That way one can test if the output space is sufficiently covered, and the rounding behavior as well. Electrical space usually tends to be integer encoded with not too many bits, making even exhaustive sampling feasible for 1D curves.
