Overview
SCHISM provides benchmark tests for verifying your installation or new code development.
Due to the large file size of these tests, they are distributed via svn. You’ll need svn v1.8 or above (svn manual). Svn clients on linux/unix/windows/Mac should all work.
The command to checkout the tests is:
svn co https://columbia.vims.edu/schism/schism_verification_tests
Note that the test suite is kept up to date with the latest master branch on the SCHISM’s git repo. As a result, there may be some differences (some parameters may have been removed or added) between the param.nml you are using and the one from the verification tests (master branch). In this case, you may need to modify the param.nml you downloaded from the “schism_verification_tests” to make it work with your SCHISM version. A sample param.nml is always provided under your SCHISM source code directory:
$your_schism_dir/sample_inputs/param.nml
The latest master version can also be viewed on the Github page.
