Acceptance of a new system requires extensive testing and is often comprised of hundreds of tests. Summit, the latest flagship super-computer at the Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility (OLCF), and the number one system in the November 2018 Top500 list [2], completed its acceptance testing in 2018. To execute acceptance, the acceptance test (AT) team utilizes the OLCF test harness, a tool developed at the OLCF that automates the launch and verification of all acceptance tests. Acceptance requires analysis of test results and classification of all test failures. The sheer number of tests involved makes performing these tasks challenging. To complete these tasks more efficiently, in addition to lessen the personnel burden during acceptance testing, we developed a monitoring system for the OLCF test harness called Harmony.
