Comment (by eschnett):

 All thorns are supposed to fill in all grid points. If necessary, the
 thorns have to synchronise and apply a boundary condition.

 A generic mechanism for testing this would be to have an independent thorn
 that takes a grid function where supposedly all grid points are valid,
 makes a copy, applies a symmetry boundary condition to the original, and
 then compares to the copy. Any difference is an error. This would also
 test synchronisation and boundary conditions.
