  • Open PRs

    • OpenFOAM lid driven cavity #243 (for the OpenFOAM.com version)

  • TODO

    • API docs: Caspar will implement the changes himself => still todo
    • Satish will explore Stream => Focussed on OpenFOAM first, based on the one from the ExaFOAM project
    • To get more adoption we should probably present the test suite on the EB user meeting, and promote it also as something that can test local module stacks
      • We are with Sam, Lara and Caspar who can help out
      • Time slot is 20 mins
      • 5 minute talk, then 15 minutes to try and write a config _on their own system
      • Caspar will ask Kenneth if we can prep participants beforehand with a few lines of instruction (e.g. reserve 1 or 2 CPU nodes, if you can, have flat modules available somewhere, and have one of the modules from the EESSI test suite available)

  • Issues

    • Lara had several issues, reported on issue tracker for test-suite
      • Caspar will check for GROMACS on Snellius if they fail
      • Suggestion for #242: could be SLURM environments that get set somewhere, Lara will dump them and check.
