    Hi,

    I am thinking about re-instating mpi-testsuite, last in the archive in
    2018.


    Any thoughts?

    I'd say it's a good idea. mpi4py has sort of been serving in the role
    of a test suite,
    but it annoys the mpi4py maintainer if we report a test failure as a
    bug in mpi4py rather than the MPI component triggering the bug. In
    that sense it'd be good to have more comprehensive testing.

    The idea is that mpi-testsuite gets triggered by. autopkgtests for
    openmpi, mpich, pmix, ucx, etc.
    Some work (ahem) will be needed to set up an MPI configuration for Salsa
    / DebCI, particularly with GPU support.
