## Wave 4 Testing Methodology
|
|
|
|
### Sequential Testing Protocol
|
|
```bash
|
|
# MANDATORY: --test-threads=1 to prevent OOM
|
|
cargo test -p ml <test_name> --release -- --test-threads=1 --nocapture
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Why Sequential?**
|
|
- Prevents GPU memory exhaustion
|
|
- Isolates device errors per test
|
|
- Provides clear error attribution
|
|
- Enables accurate VRAM monitoring
|
|
|
|
### GPU Monitoring
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Real-time monitoring
|
|
watch -n 1 nvidia-smi
|
|
|
|
# Scripted monitoring
|
|
nvidia-smi --query-gpu=memory.used,memory.total,utilization.gpu --format=csv
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Test Categories
|
|
1. **Unit tests**: Component-level CUDA operations
|
|
2. **Integration tests**: End-to-end model workflows
|
|
3. **CUDA-specific tests**: Device compatibility validation
|
|
4. **Checkpoint tests**: Model persistence validation
