Test Suite and Sample InputsΒΆ

Psi4 is distributed with an extensive test suite, which can be found in psi4/tests. After building the source code, these can automatically be run by running ctest in the compilation directory. More info on ctest options can be found on the Wiki. Sample input files can be found in the the psi4/samples subdirectory of the top-level Psi directory. The samples and a brief description are provided below.

Sample inputs accessible through interfaced executables are bulleted below.

Sample inputs for Psi4 as distributed are below.

rasci-ne Ne atom RASCI/cc-pVQZ Example of split-virtual CISD[TQ] from Sherrill and Schaefer, J. Phys. Chem. XXX This uses a “primary” virtual space 3s3p (RAS 2), a “secondary” virtual space 3d4s4p4d4f (RAS 3), and a “tertiary” virtual space consisting of the remaining virtuals. First, an initial CISD computation is run to get the natural orbitals; this allows a meaningful partitioning of the virtual orbitals into groups of different importance. Next, the RASCI is run. The split-virtual CISD[TQ] takes all singles and doubles, and all triples and quadruples with no more than 2 electrons in the secondary virtual subspace (RAS 3). If any electrons are present in the tertiary virtual subspace (RAS 4), then that excitation is only allowed if it is a single or double.
