RIOT/dist/tools/compile_and_test_for_board

Compile and Test one board

The ./compile_and_test_for_board.py script can be used to run all compilation and automated tests for one board, not the manual tests.

Usage

./compile_and_test_for_board.py path_to_riot_directory board_name [results]

It prints the summary with results files relative to results_dir/board to have a github friendly output.

Failures and all tests output are saved in files. They can be checked with:

find results/ -name '*.failed'
find results/ -name 'test.success'

Script checks

Use tox to run basic checks on the script:

$ tox

This runs doctest (via pytest), pylint and flake8 checks in a row. Use -e to run each check independently:

$ tox -e test
$ tox -e lint
$ tox -e flake8

Implementation TODO

The script was developed for being used outside of RIOT so does not currently simply adapt to be used from within RIOT.

• Provide another script for new interface?
• Provide a RIOT/Makefile integration
• Save output files into ${BUILD_DIR}/output/compile_and_test directory by default
• Add tests.
• Implement the board_is_supported/board_has_enough_memory/has_tests to make targets instead of fiddling to get the value
