#496: WeylScal4 fails tests with development version of Carpet --------------------+------------------------------------------------------- Reporter: hinder | Owner: eschnett Type: defect | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: Carpet | Version: Keywords: | --------------------+------------------------------------------------------- Both WeylScal4 tests fail with the development version of Carpet but not with the stable version. The report is

One possibility is that the grids in this test are so small that the grid structure is being affected by the Carpet regridding algorithm which ensures proper nesting, and this algorithm might have changed unavoidably between the stable and development versions of Carpet. If we confirm that this is the case, we could either use a larger grid to prevent this from happening, or just regenerate the data. It would be useful to add output of the coordinate gridfunctions to catch the cases where the grids are a different shape.

(Reporting against Carpet so it can be fixed as part of the move to the development version)
