What does this PR do?

Type of change: new tests

Adds focused ONNX quantization characterization coverage before the calibrated INT8 and FP8 execution paths are consolidated.

The new test uses deterministic literal calibration batches that produce distinct entropy and max scales for both INT8 and FP8. It directly verifies Q/DQ placement, quantized types, scale and zero-point values, graph I/O types, and opset through the public quantization API.

Strict expected-failure tests also record the intended future contracts for calibration defaults and source cardinality, exact mode tokens, calibration-cache removal, legacy import removal, retired exporter helpers, and the new AutoTune helper namespace.

Usage

# N/A — test-only change.

Testing

Run in nvcr.io/nvidia/tensorrt:25.06-py3:

  • pytest -q tests/unit/onnx/quantization
    • 375 passed, 14 intentionally xfailed
  • pytest -q tests/gpu/onnx/quantization/test_quantize_fp8.py
    • 1 passed
  • GPU quantization suite excluding the existing AutoTune integration test
    • 46 passed, 3 skipped
  • ONNX Runtime patching and simplification GPU tests
    • 31 passed
  • Focused Ruff, formatting, mypy, Bandit, and repository pre-commit hooks passed.

The complete GPU quantization run reached the existing AutoTune integration test and encountered a native TensorRT engine-build segmentation fault. No Python assertion failed before the native crash.

Required test dependencies can be hidden as expected failures instead of failing collection. Move the ordinary imports to module scope before merging, while retaining the conditional import used to test removed modules.

Move required module imports to module scope.

These calls import required modules during test execution. An import failure therefore occurs mid-test instead of during collection.

Import modelopt.onnx.quantization.quantize and modelopt.onnx.quantization.autotune at module scope. Keep the dynamic import at Line 350 because that test checks whether a module was removed.

As per path instructions, “Keep imports at module top unless a justified exception applies.”

Proposed fix
 import modelopt.onnx.quantization as moq
+import modelopt.onnx.quantization.autotune as autotune
+import modelopt.onnx.quantization.quantize as quantize_module
-    quantize_module = importlib.import_module("modelopt.onnx.quantization.quantize")
-    autotune = importlib.import_module("modelopt.onnx.quantization.autotune")
     assert hasattr(autotune, "get_quantized_tensors")
