# Add exclaim configuration to the buildbot testing

###### tags: `cycle 15`

- Shaped by: Mauro
- Developers: Praveen, Anurag, Jonas
- Appetite: 1/2 cycle

## Why?

The EXCLAIM configuration may be failing because of missing tests in the upstream repository, while we are spending time debugging the GPU code, the GT4Py implementation, etc. Having the configuration tested upstream would save us some time in future runs if the developers push some changes in the upstream repository.

## Tasks

- Produce a test for EXCLAIM configurations that runs on little resources
- Discuss with the repository owners the introduction of this test
- Try the run and fix issues for continuous testing

## Not in the project

- Introduce additional tests

## Time sinks

- Bugs in the CI runs due to the configuration being not supported (clearly this is a case that needs to be fixed in order for EXCLAIM itself to have some hopes to run them at scale). I put it in time sinks since it is not clear how long fixing this cases could take, but they need to be fixed.
