Bootrr

A sanity checker for boards under automated test on LAVA.

Before running the tests for your software stack on LAVA, you really want to ensure that the basics are in place.

Testing that all the expected hardware is detected and that modules and firmwares can be loaded catches some very common kind of regressions: for instance, when renaming identifiers it is often the case that firmware blobs no longer get loaded since their location needs to be updated accordingly.

This repository contains:

• static board descriptions that list what to expect for each specific board type
• helpers to inspect the current system and compare it against the static board description for it
• the bootrr script to automatically detect the current board and run the matching tests

The output is in a format meant to be directly parsed by LAVA.
