Testing the multi-component preCICE ecosystem

With several bindings, adapters, tutorials, and more components now in its arsenal, preCICE is now much more than a coupling library: it is a rapidly growing multiphysics ecosystem. One small code contribution in any of the involved repositories can have side-effects on the building, running, and computations of any downstream component. Creating a sustainable testing framework for such a complex ecosystem is not trivial. This talk will discuss the status quo of testing complete coupled simulations for regressions, the ideal system for all the involved stakeholders, challenges specific to preCICE, and novel solutions that will lead us to the new preCICE system tests.     «
