What's the tolerance used by the testsuite?

So I want to know the tolerance used by the testsuite, and wonder if the tolerance range needs to be widened a bit to accommodate more advanced vectorizations, say, AVX512 and similar scenarios.If the VASP validation test is looking for an exact FP value, that’s its error. If it accepts a small variation, perhaps the range needs to be widened a bit to accommodate more advanced vectorizations.
