If OpenHPC folks want to cultivate such a repo I think that would be great. If such a repo existed then I think we should work with them on making sure that it integrates nicely into MTT so we can add it to the nightly regressions. Getting a release of MTT is something I would like to see happen s

Assume that we are able to “package” MTT so it can be upstreamed to the OpenHPC folks (as they have requested). It then becomes a little more “salable” as a generalized testing tool, which means that the tests in our repo could be used by others without having to deal with the MTT-specific harne

I think talking to the MPICH folks about creating a common test pool might be useful. More useful would be to get the MPI Forum to 'bless' it and take input from all of the MPI venders. Maybe you all can talk about that in a sidebar at the MPI Forum - depending on what we figure out here. The MPIC

WHAT: Create a public test repo (ompi-tests-public) to collect WHY: ompi-tests is private, and difficult/impossible to open up. There is a demand for a public collection of unit tests. This repo would allow us to cultivate such a collection of unit tests. WHERE: open-mpi GitHub project TIMEOUT:
