It is a standalone tool for testing the correctness and performance of arbitrary MPI implementations. The MTT is an attempt to create a single tool to download and build a variety of different MPI implementations, and then compile and run any number of test suites against each of the MPI installations, storing the results in a back-end database that then becomes available for historical data mining. The test suites can be for both correctness and performance analysis (e.g., tests such as nightly snapshot compile results as well as the latency of MPI_SEND can be historically archived with this tool). The MTT provides the glue to obtain and install MPI installations (e.g., download and compile/build source distributions such as nightly snapshots, or copy/install binary distributions, or utilize an already-existing MPI installation), and then obtain, compile, and run the tests. Results of each phase are submitted to a centralized PostgresSQL database via HTTP/HTTPS. Simply put, MTT is a common infrastructure that can be distributed to many different sites in order to run a common set of tests against a group of MPI implementations that all feed into a common PostgresSQL database of results. The MTT client is written in Python; the MTT server side is written almost entirely in PHP and relies on a back-end PostgresSQL database. The main (loose) requirements that we had for the MTT are: - Use a back-end database / archival system. - Ability to obtain arbitrary MPI implementations from a variety of sources (web/FTP download, filesystem copy, Subversion export, etc.). - Ability to install the obtained MPI implementations, regardless of whether they are source or binary distributions. For source distributions, include the ability to compile each MPI implementation in a variety of different ways (e.g., with different compilers and/or compile flags). - Ability to obtain arbitrary test suites from a variety of sources (web/FTP download, filesystem copy, Subversion export, etc.). - Ability to build each of the obtained test suites against each of the MPI implementation installations (e.g., for source MPI distributions, there may be more than one installation). - Ability to run each of the built test suites in a variety of different ways (e.g, with a set of different run-time options). - Ability to record the output from each of the steps above and submit securely them to a centralized database. - Ability to run the entire test process in a completely automated fashion (e.g., via cron). - Ability to run each of the steps above on physically different machines. For example, some sites may require running the obtain/download steps on machines that have general internet access, running the compile/install steps on dedicated compile servers, running the MPI tests on dedicated parallel resources, and then running the final submit steps on machines that have general internet access. - Use a component-based system (i.e., plugins) for the above steps so that extending the system to download (for example) a new MPI implementation is simply a matter of writing a new module with a well-defined interface. How to cite this software ------------------------- Hursey J., Mallove E., Squyres J.M., Lumsdaine A. (2007) An Extensible Framework for Distributed Testing of MPI Implementations. In Recent Advances in Parallel Virtual Machine and Message Passing Interface. EuroPVM/MPI 2007. Lecture Notes in Computer Science, vol 4757. Springer, Berlin, Heidelberg. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-540-75416-9_15 Overview -------- The MTT divides its execution into six phases: 1. MPI get: obtain MPI software package(s) (e.g., download, copy) 2. MPI install: install the MPI software package(s) obtained in phase 1. This may involve a binary installation or a build from source. 3. Test get: obtain MPI test(s) 4. Test build: build the test(s) against all MPI installations installed in phase 2. 5. Test run: run all the tests build in phase 4. 6. Report: report the results of phases 2, 4, and 5. The phases are divided in order to allow a multiplicative effect. For example, each MPI package obtained in phase 1 may be installed in multiple different ways in phase 2. Tests that are built in phase 4 may be run multiple different ways in phase 5. And so on. This multiplicative effect allows testing many different code paths through MPI even with a small number of actual tests. For example, the Open MPI Project uses the MTT for nightly regression testing. Even with only several hundred MPI test source codes, Open MPI is tested against a variety of different compilers, networks, number of processes, and other run-time tunable options. A typical night of testing yields around 150,000 Open MPI tests. Quick start ----------- Testers run the MTT client on their systems to do all the work. A configuration file is used to specify which MPI implementations to use and which tests to run. The Open MPI Project uses MTT for nightly regression testing. A sample Perl client configuration file is included in samples/perl/ompi-core-template.ini. This template will require customization for each site's specific requirements. It is also suitable as an example for organizations outside of the Open MPI Project. Open MPI members should visit the MTT wiki for instructions on how to setup for nightly regression testing: https://github.com/open-mpi/mtt/wiki/OMPITesting Note that the INI file can be used to specify web proxies if necessary. See comments in the ompi-core-template.ini file for details. Running the MTT Perl client --------------------------- Having run the MTT client across several organizations within the Open MPI Project for quite a while, we have learned that even with common goals (such as Open MPI nightly regression testing), MTT tends to get used quite differently at each site where it is used. The command-line client was designed to allow a high degree of flexibility for site-specific requirements. The MTT client has many command line options; see the following for a full list: $ client/mtt --help Some sites add an upper layer of logic/scripting above the invocation of the MTT client. For example, some sites run the MTT on SLURM-maintained clusters. A variety of compilers are tested, yielding multiple unique (MPI get, MPI install, Test get, Test build) tuples. Each tuple is run in its own 1-node SLURM allocation, allowing the many installations/builds to run in parallel. When the install/build tuple has completed, more SLURM jobs are queued for each desired number of nodes/processes to test. These jobs all execute in parallel (pending resource availability) in order to achieve maximum utilization of the testing cluster. Other scenarios are also possible; the above is simply one way to use the MTT. Current status -------------- This tool was initially developed by the Open MPI team for nightly and periodic compile and regression testing. However, enough other parties have expressed [significant] interest that we have open-sourced the tool and are eagerly accepting input from others. Indeed, having a common tool to help objectively evaluate MPI implementations may be an enormous help to the High Performance Computing (HPC) community at large. We have no illusions of MTT becoming the be-all/end-all tool for testing software -- we do want to keep it somewhat focused on the needs and requires of testing MPI implementations. As such, the usage flow is somewhat structured towards that bias. It should be noted that the software has been mostly developed internally to the Open MPI project and will likely experience some growing pains while adjusting to a larger community. License ------- Because we want MTT to be a valuable resource to the entire HPC community, the MTT uses the new BSD license -- see the LICENSE file in the MTT distribution for details.
