Hartmannometer versus Fizeau Interferometer: advantages and drawbacks

In this paper we consider two approaches widely used in optical testing: Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor and Fizeau interferometer technique. Fizeau interferometer that is widely used in optical testing can be easily transformed to a device using Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor, the alternative technique to check optical components. We call this device Hartmannometer, and compare its features to those of Fizeau interferometer.
