Testing Research Software: A Case Study	2020-05-25		.txt	text/plain	2642	143	48	Method: Using the ParSplice research software project as a case, we implemented a testing framework based on a statistical testing approach called Multinomial Test. 2.1), the non-determinism stems from (1) the use of stochastic differential equations to model the physics and (2) the order in which communication between the procedures occurs (note however that even though the results from each execution depends upon message ordering, each valid order produces a statistically accurate result, which is the key requirement for the validity of ParSplice simulations). In this paper, we describe a case study of the ParSplice project in which we followed the PSIP methodology to develop a testing framework to address the difficulties of testing non-deterministic parallel research software. The approach we followed to develop the test framework can be a model for other research software projects.	./cache/cord-027445-bpx4qr0i.txt	./txt/cord-027445-bpx4qr0i.txt
