Abstract
We outline the design of ATS, the APART Test Suite, for evaluating (automatic) performance analysis tools with respect to their correctness and effectiveness in detecting actual performance problems, with focus on the ATS test programs related to OpenMP. We report on results from applying two OpenMP performance analysis tools to the test cases generated from ATS.
