# TaoDefaultConvergenceTest
Determines whether the solver should continue iterating or terminate. 
## Synopsis
```
#include "petsctao.h" 
PetscErrorCode TaoDefaultConvergenceTest(Tao tao, void *dummy)
```
Collective


## Input Parameters

- ***tao -*** the `Tao` context
- ***dummy -*** unused dummy context





## Notes
This routine checks the residual in the optimality conditions, the
relative residual in the optimity conditions, the number of function
evaluations, and the function value to test convergence.  Some
solvers may use different convergence routines.
