build management
Does your test system:
- build the software under test (e.g. the kernel)? yes
- build the test software? yes
- build other software (such as the distro, libraries, firmware)? yes
- support cross-compilation? 'yes
- require a toolchain or build system for the SUT? yes
- require a toolchain or build system for the test software? no
- come with pre-built toolchains? no
- store the build artifacts for generated software? yes
- in what format is the build metadata stored (e.g. json)? internal
- are the build artifacts stored as raw files or in a database? raw files
- if a database, what database? everything supported by sqlalchemy
Test scheduling/management
Does your test system:
- check that dependencies are met before a test is run?
- schedule the test for the DUT? yes
- select an appropriate individual DUT based on SUT or test attributes? yes (can be configured)
- reserve the DUT? yes
- release the DUT? yes
- install the software under test to the DUT? yes/no (can be configured)
- install required packages before a test is run? yes/no (can be configured)
- require particular bootloader on the DUT? (e.g. grub, uboot, etc.) no (depends on the setups, e.g. whether with QEMU or, real hardware)
- deploy the test program to the DUT? yes/no (can be configured)
- prepare the test environment on the DUT? yes/no (can be configured)
- start a monitor (another process to collect data) on the DUT? yes/no (can be configured)
- start a monitor on external equipment? yes/no (can be configured)
- initiate the test on the DUT? yes
- clean up the test environment on the DUT? yes
DUT control
Does your test system:
- store board configuration data? no
- in what format?
- store external equipment configuration data? no
- in what format?
- power cycle the DUT? no
- monitor the power usage during a run? no
- gather a kernel trace during a run? no
- claim other hardware resources or machines (other than the DUT) for use during a test? no
- reserve a board for interactive use (ie remove it from automated testing)? no
- provide a web-based control interface for the lab? Buildbot web interface (limited, only stop test, pause the worker)
- provide a CLI control interface for the lab? yes, Buildbot-worker
Run artifact handling
Does your test system:
- store run artifacts yes
- in what format? raw files
- put the run meta-data in a database? yes
- if so, which database? anything supported by sqlalchemy
- parse the test logs for results? yes
- convert data from test logs into a unified format? no
- if so, what is the format?
- evaluate pass criteria for a test (e.g. ignored results, counts or thresholds)? yes
- do you have a common set of result names: (e.g. pass, fail, skip, etc.) yes
- if so, what are they? Buildbot test results
- How is run data collected from the DUT?
Buildbot-worker/Buildbot master
- e.g. by pushing from the DUT, or pulling from a server?
- How is run data collected from external equipment?
- Is external equipment data parsed?
User interface

- can you query (aggregate and filter) the build meta-data? yes
- can you query (aggregate and filter) the run meta-data? yes
- what language or data format is used for online results presentation? custom html/javascript app
- what language or data format is used for reports? Depend from the report tool used
