### Description

Internal function to compare the distribution of a query datasets 'top' genes between two different reference datasete groups with a Mann–Whitney U test. One directional test if groupA median < group B.

### Usage

      enforceAgtB = TRUE)

### Arguments

`de_table.ref.marked` | The output of `get_the_up_genes_for_all_possible_groups` for the contrast of interest.
`the_test_group` | Name of the test group in query dataset.
`groupA` | One of the reference group names
`groupB` | Another of the reference group names
`enforceAgtB` | Do a one tailed test of A 'less' B (more similar)? Or two-tailed. Default = TRUE.
