Description

We have users of ATS who use laptops.
The laptops have MPI installed and look like Linux.
They need a module which uses 'mpirun' rather than 'srun' to run parallel tests.

Research direction

Start by locating the existing module that invokes srun and the entry point used to launch parallel tests. Compare its behavior with the requested mpirun-based module, then verify that parallel tests can run on Linux laptops with MPI installed and that the existing test suite still passes.
