[QE-users] Test-suite failing QE-7.4.1

[Ian Dunn]

Hi, I'm a new Quantum Espresso user and would like to check that my installation of QE was successful. I have attempted to run the test suite and was able to get all the paths setup properly to my knowledge and pseudopotentials downloaded, but I'm getting errors from some of the tests. I execute the test suite by running "make run-tests".

In version 7.3.1 from the QE website I was already getting errors so I tried running 7.4.1 off of Gitlab in hopes that the test-suite would be fixed in the latest release. Here is a summary of the output in v7.4.1:

PW:

All done. 248 out of 248 tests passed (5 skipped).

CP:

All done. 33 out of 33 tests passed (2 skipped).

PH:

All done. ERROR: only 23 out of 73 tests passed.
Failed tests in:
        /hpc/home/idunn/7.4.1/test-suite/ph_1d/

        /hpc/home/idunn/7.4.1/test-suite/ph_restart/
        /hpc/home/idunn/7.4.1/test-suite/ph_twochem/

And after PH none of the other test categories run.

Is there a problem with the compilation/installation and should I (mis)trust the results? Is this known behavior? Also why are some tests being skipped and does that also present a problem? Thanks in advance for your support!

Best regards,
Ian Dunn
