[MTT users] New version of MTT

[Jeff Squyres]

All --

We are just about to release MTT version 2.1.  Woo hoo!

There are a bunch of new features available -- see this wiki page for  
details:


https://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/mtt/wiki/News-09-May-2007

We strongly encourage everyone to update their INI files for new  
"pass" and "skip" criteria with the new _*() funclets that are  
available (examples are on the wiki page).


Ethan will reply shortly with the timeframe for when we plan to cut  
the new version over on the "ompi-core-developers" branch.

[MTT users] New version of MTT

[Jeff Squyres]

As Ethan already noted, we'll be rolling out a new version of MTT  
after the new year.  For your Christmas pleasure, here's a summary of  
the new features:


Sever-side / General:
-

- Revamped web reporter / nightly e-mails -- huge improvements over
  the prior release, including:
- Leaner, faster, and more intuitive web user interface
- Clickable summary reports for drilling down
- More flexible querying (e.g., multiple selection, regular
  expressions, sortable columns, and cherry-picked reports)
- Query screen and reports on one screen (no frames needed)
- Super short URLs
- Display 100 rows at a time
- Distinguish between tests that pass, fail, timeout, and are
  intentionally skipped.
- Added support for latency and bandwidth performance testing and
  reporting.  Verified with NetPIPE and IMB MPI test suites.

MTT client:
---

- Added support for environment modules (http://modules.sf.net/)
- Dramatically better memory utilization (especially for large
  numbers of test runs)
- Add some "progress bar"-like output to --verbose output so that
  users can see how far along the tests are
- Added "--trial" option to MTT client to allow testing of the MTT
  client/INI file setup itself without submitting potentially  
erroneous/

  bad results data into the MTT results database
- Print [somewhat] better messages about errors with INI files
- MTT client now distinguishes between specifying tests to run and
  analyzing their results (e.g., correctness and performance)
