-`atesting` provides access to limited resources for the purpose of verifying workflows and MPI jobs. Users are able to request up to 2 CPU nodes (16 cores per node) for a maximum runtime of 3 hours (default 30 minutes). Users who need GPU nodes to test workflows should use the appropriate GPU testing partitions (`atesting_a100` or `atesting_mi100`) instead of `atesting`.
