|
mpi-test - automated test program for MPI library
|
||
|
|
||
|
=head1 SYNOPSIS
|
||
|
|
||
|
mpi-test <suite-name> [quiet]
|
||
|
mpi-test list
|
||
|
mpi-test help
|
||
|
|
||
|
=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
||
|
The B<mpi-test> program is a general unit test driver for the MPI
|
||
|
library. It is used to verify that the library works as it is
|
||
|
supposed to on your architecture. As with most such things, passing
|
||
|
all the tests in B<mpi-test> does not guarantee the code is correct,
|
||
|
but if any of them fail, there are certainly problems.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Each major function of the library can be tested individually. For a
|
||
|
list of the test suites understood by B<mpi-test>, run it with the
|
||
|
I<list> command line option:
|
||
|
|
||
|
mpi-test list
|
||
|
|
||
|
This will display a list of the available test suites and a brief
|
||
|
synopsis of what each one does. For a brief overview of this
|
||
|
document, run B<mpi-test> I<help>.
|
||
|
|
||
|
B<mpi-test> exits with a zero status if the selected test succeeds, or
|
||
|
a nonzero status if it fails. If a I<suite-name> which is not
|
||
|
understood by B<mpi-test> is given, a diagnostic is printed to the
|
||
|
standard error, and the program exits with a result code of 2. If a
|
||
|
test fails, the result code will be 1, and a diagnostic is ordinarily
|
||
|
printed to the standard error. However, if the I<quiet> option is
|
||
|
provided, these diagnostics will be suppressed.
|
||
|
|
||
|
=head1 RESTRICTIONS
|
||
|
|
||
|
Only a few canned test cases are provided. The solutions have been
|
||
|
verified using the GNU bc(1) program, so bugs there may cause problems
|
||
|
here; however, this is very unlikely, so if a test fails, it is almost
|
||
|
certainly my fault, not bc(1)'s.
