I'm new to openmpi and currently I have setup openmpi-1.3.3a1r21566 on my Linux machines. I have run some of available examples and also noticed there are some test modules under /openmpi-1.3.3a1r21566/ test. Are these tests run on batchwise? then how ? or are these tests suppose to run individually by compiling and executing seperately ?
They are run via "make check" -- it's a standard GNU mechanism that is built into our make system automatically by Automake. These tests are loosely maintained at best -- they were put in a long time ago, but the bulk of our regression testing codes are in different, not- publicly-accessible repositories (mainly because many of them were not originally written by us and we were too lazy to look into public redistribution rights).
I'm hoping to contribute openmpi as a developer, so I would like to know can users contribute by adding more example codes ?
Great! More tests, examples, documentation, and code are always appreciated!
Note that we have a separate "de...@open-mpi.org" list for developer- level discussions.
