Many test reference outputs under tests/saved/*.out are either inconsistent across the test categories or not aligned with current cutoff defaults (or both).
Specfically, the following are the current cutoff defaults:
- Exchange correlation (
XCCUTOFF): 1e-7
- SCF density matrix entry RMS change (
DENSERMS): 1e-6
- SCF basis sets (
BASISCUTOFF): 1e-6
- SCF one- and two-electron integrals (
CUTOFF): 1e-7
- Gradients (
GRADCUTOFF): 1e-7
These are also printed in the reference test outputs under the following headers, respectively:
- PRUNING CUTOFF (XC Quadrature Formation section)
- DENSITY MATRIX MAXIMUM RMS FOR CONVERGENCE (JOB CARD section)
- BASIS FUNCTION (JOB CARD section)
- TWO-e INTEGRAL (JOB CARD section)
- GRADIENT CUTOFF (JOB CARD section)
Tests references need to be updated and validation parameters reviewed in light of current code cutoff defaults (see calls to dacdif in the runtest script for the latter point).
