+    Test that correct number of connections is created for fixed_indegree.
+
+    Description:
+    This test uses fixed-indegree Connect to connect a net of 100 neurons
+    to itself, with 89 connections per neuron, a total of 8900 connections.
+    It is checked whether the total number of connections and the number of
+    static connections equals 8900. Then additional 8900 connections of type
+    stdp_synapse are created. It is checked whether the total number of
+    connections is 17800 and the number of stdp connections is 8900.
