It will be very useful in the future to have architecture-specific
simulators like qemu and simavr up and running, but in the meantime a local
simulator might be useful for testing generic application code, as well as
testing and debugging core kernel modules. It will always be necessary to
run the test suite on each architecture port, but this will make it very
easy to automate the running of the automated tests where generic (non-port)
code is concerned.

I took a look at Simavr site - seems promising. I will try to

It should be possible to run it on most ATmega devices. I have personally
run it on ATmega16 and ATmega32, and others have reported success on
ATmega168, ATmega2560/1 and others.

Best regards,
