Reproducibility and Testing

All stacks provide:

• deterministic hashing

• JSON-first outputs

• seed-aware execution

• identical Hamiltonians across algorithms

Force recomputation:

vqe --force

qpe --force

qite run --force

qite run-qrte --force

Testing

The default pytest target runs the fast development suite. Slow chemistry checks and selected subprocess CLI integration tests are available behind pytest markers.

pytest -q

Run every test, including slow integration coverage:

pytest -q -o addopts=''
