discussion on 3 different mesh-geometries and the 4 testfiles that each creates
base64_appended testfile not opening in Paraview for "hexahedras_test" and "write_test_3D"
load Ascii file for these 2 meshes in Paraview and have Paraview export it in the base64_appended format ("Data Mode" -> "Appended" & "Encoded")
compare between the testfile from compilation and the Paraview-generated one)
keep all tests (icosahedron, write_test_3D, hexahedras)
split code into smaller functions & add more Unit Tests (lower-level & easier to test)
talked about ZLIB compressed file format and how it is included through CMake (ZLIB package not found in Windows)
discussed parallel computing processes:
2 options:
every CPU creates its own file and the pVTU "umbrella" file (to be opened in Paraview) is created by a master node (decided to try this option at the beginning)
all CPUs write to the same file
NEXT STEPS:
[x] fix base64_appended bug for "hexas_test" & "write_3D_test"
[x] check that tests are running in Paraview as expected
