As a side remark, the executables created on Trestles are not runnable. The test cases that nevertheless succeed on Trestles (!) are probably not interesting.

How does the test succeed if the executable can't run?

That's the question.

Cactus doesn't test whether the executable runs, it tests whether every generated output file is correct. Maybe there are zero output files.

I thought it also checked exit code.

mpirun might not be propagating the exit code on that machine.
