Configbuilder: testing automated infrastructure system detection

[mgeaghan]

Description

The infrastructure configuration side of the app has a few automated system checks in place to detect potential HPC schedulers, container software, and the presence of a module system.

Tasks

• Test that these checks work correctly
  • HpcCustomisation._get_scheduler()
  • HpcCustomisation._get_queues()
  • HpcCustomisation._detect_module_system()
  • FinalInfraDetails._get_container_systems()
• Run the app on different HPC systems (if possible). Currently the following should be detected:
  - [ ] PBSPro
  - [ ] SLURM
  - [ ] SGE (Sun Grid Engine)
• Make sure that the relevant text input fields are being auto-filled when these software/systems are detected.

We'll be working on this issue at the 2026 hackathon Sydney hub
