Description
As a result of SP-1326, the workflow CoP agreed on a standard way to run workflows for validation (NextFlow). This puts us in a position to compare components and workflows built from them both in terms of computational performance and in terms of scientific performance.
To use this for benchmarking, a suitable benchmarking and profiling environment needs to be set up. Ideally, this environment should resemble the environment of the to-be-built HPC as closely as possible. However, if a suitable hardware platform does not become available, we might fall back to the Kubernetes STFC (or Engage?) resources currently used for CI.
