To test

Last updated: 2026-10-24 afternoon. Hand checks waiting for a person at the screen. An item is added when a fix is merged (the issue is closed by the fix commit) and removed when it has been checked; anything that fails goes back to its issue. The build under test is named in each section.

How to help: anyone can take an item. Build or install the version named in the section (packages from the latest CI run on main, or build as in GETTING_STARTED.md), try the check, and comment on the linked issue: what you did, what you saw, operating system and version, and a screenshot if something looks wrong. Items are taken off this page once someone has reported them as working.

Linux, on main (74adbbc6 and later)

Check	What to look for	Issue
Failed submit reason	A failed submit (e.g. wrong run directory) leaves the reason in the Organizer status line of the Ready calculation; a good relaunch clears it	#516
No black flash	Click a GROMACS study, delete a study task: the Organizer window never goes black	#523
Progress box axes	Every Progress box plot has x ticks (ps for MD, step/cycle otherwise, spanning the run) and min/max on y	#530

Branches waiting for review (all in one test package: build-cmake/debs-review, branch wip/review-1024)

Check	What to look for	Issue
Polyoxometalates library (branch wip/405-pom)	Builder → Structure Library → Polyoxometalates: each entry opens, looks like the named ion, bonds sensible; the list of missing species is on the issue	#405
Teaching examples + QE import (branch wip/447-qe-import)	File > Open Example Calculations > Teaching: seven diatomics and three QE crystals import and open; File > Import Calculation of a pw.x output gives cell, atoms, energy	#447
Pre-parsed examples (branch wip/448-preparsed-examples)	Open Example Calculations: sets import in seconds, results the same as before	#448
ECCE-QM IRC (branch wip/452-irc)	From a converged ECCE-QM TS with frequencies: New calculation, run type IRC, both directions; IRC pane shows the path and energies	#452

Windows / macOS (checked on the maintainers' test machines)

Check	What to look for	Issue
Vibrations spectrum (Windows 11; maintainer test bed, not for the Linux deb)	Spectrum shows one curve; peaks can be picked at once	#445

Clusters

Check	What to look for	Issue
Gaussian 16 Cartesian optimisation	Theory 'Use Cartesian Coordinates' gives Opt=(Cartesian) in the route (seen in the input) and the job converges	#488

Installs

Check	What to look for	Issue
Install from scratch	RHEL 9, Ubuntu 24.04, Debian trixie: client, server, each deployment mode	#193
