If you run util/start_test from anywhere under the test/ directory, it'll 
walk and test the entire directory tree under there, printing a summary at 
the end (and storing both log and summary in the test/Logs/ directory).

Testing test/release/examples is usually a good starting point because 
it's (a) a small subset of the whole test system and (b) a collection of 
high priority tests (that also tend to touch a lot of the features in the 
langauge).

Running the whole test suite takes a lot of time on a conventional system, 
so in practice we typically run in parallel using a script called 
paratest.server that calls into start_test.  In some cases, you can 
prevail on someone within the Cray team to run the tests for you if you 
don't have the resources to do it in a timely manner (and have good 
confidence that things are working based on passing test/release, for 
example).

See doc/developer/bestPractices/TestSystem.txt for more details about the 
testing system and the comments at the top of start_test for even more.
