| 64 | ==== Testing Installation ==== |
| 65 | A number of built-in tests can be run to validate the functionality of your Dakota installation. |
| 66 | {{{ |
| 67 | cd <path_to_dakota_installation>/share/dakota/test |
| 68 | ./dakota_test.perl <options> |
| 69 | }}} |
| 70 | Note that extended options for the above test script are not well-documented by Sandia. Said options can be exposed by running, |
| 71 | {{{ |
| 72 | ./dakota_test.perl --help |
| 73 | }}} |
| 74 | In particular, it is useful to run, |
| 75 | {{{ |
| 76 | ./dakota_test.perl --parallel |
| 77 | }}} |
| 78 | to validate that MPI has been properly linked to the Dakota binaries. |
