Description Paul Eggleton 2014-04-29 14:12:51 UTC

We want to be able to run automated tests of autobuilder images on hardware where we have support for deploying the image; initially that includes EFI-based systems using gummiboot, but we will soon have support for beaglebone, edgerouter and systems using legacy GRUB (where we have a serial port to connect to).

Comment 1 Paul Eggleton 2014-04-29 14:15:17 UTC

Some further details - this will involve creating a small script to fetch the latest build output from the autobuilder and run it through the automated tests on the supported hardware. At this stage this script will be manually triggered after a build and we can look to integrate it more directly as a separate exercise.

Comment 2 Stoicescu Cornel 2014-05-09 16:05:19 UTC

A working version should be ready in a few days for review.

Comment 3 Stoicescu Cornel 2014-06-06 17:23:26 UTC

On the oe-core mailing list for review.

Comment 4 Stoicescu Cornel 2014-06-17 14:08:18 UTC

The script is merged in poky master, along with some required enhancements:
