Hi! I'd like to contribute debian testing automationI have an idea of using my own tool to run automated tests for Debian OS packages - e.g. installing packages on Debian distro, checking them successfully configured, checking that related service is running, smoke tests on running services. There is a good experience with using the tool for other Linux distros, It'd be interesting to see it with Debian OS which is a big distribution containing a lot of packages ... I have gone through existing tools on https://qa.debian.org/ pages, I have not found as I believe similar tools here, I believe this might be a good addition Before giving any details, I'd like to answer if there is room for such a tool in Debian QA space?
More QA tools help, especially if someone is watching the output of the tools :-)
Please provide more details about your tool.Have you looked at https://openqa.debian.net? Do the tests there match what you are intending to automate?
