Hi
I am part of a team in IBM that is planning to contribute code to  
the PTP
project, initially implementing support for running parallel  
applications
using IBM's Parallel Environment and Load Leveler products. Some of

may have met my manager, Ted Hoover at Supercomping 2006 a couple  
weeks
ago.
Cool!
2) What is the testing model for the PTP project? Does the whole
development team participate in testing? Do you expect the user  
community
to participate in testing? At what points in the development cycle  
where
testing takes place or is testing done incrementally as the code is
developed?
I'll take a crack at this one, but Greg should probably handle the  
rest.  Yes, the whole development team participates in testing.  Each  
developer is responsible for any incremental testing that is done and  
then a more thorough testing phase is done around a release date (I'm  
not sure if we have a formal (as in a document) testing plan  
thought).  Thus far I've added a test description for the Fortran  
Managed build part and JUnit tests for the Fortran 2003 parser that  
is under development.  Overall, I think we need to add more unit  
tests to the repository.
Cheers,
Craig
