Hi Don, It sounds nice in principal but I have some concerns over the amount of work required to get it running reliably (on an embedded system) and also how it will be maintained into the future.
Based on experience to date very few people will ever run these unit tests. AFAIK you, Steve, and Richard (cmake system) are the only people developing stm32 code for Codec 2 at the moment. I can think of about 6 unittests needed to port 700D to the stm32. Some other tests, such as DAC/ADC drivers, require more subjective tests (e.g. listening to audio), so aren't as applicable to automation. An alternative is a simpler manual system, e.g. some notes at the top of each unit test the command lines you need to run and what the pass conditions are. In some cases the test itself can work out a pass/fail and printf a result. However if this framework is something you are really interested in, and can commit to maintaining into the future, please feel free. Open source is about following our passions :-) Cheers, David On 20/07/18 07:17, Don wrote: > I have been working on a framework to make it easier to run a set of > unittests, in this case for the stm32 implementation. > > This is still a work in progress but it's ready to show the idea and > a first version.
