Hey Andy,
During our call with ARM (invite on the way), the fact that LAVA has a
network dependency came up again.
Could you expand on the network dependency issue?
Filing a bug is even better.
We also have an issue with Connectivity Manager testing. Is there anything that
can be done in
12.07 (SD mux) to get over this?
I don't think the SD mux will be available or deployed in 12.07, so we
have to think about this another way.
I think the "black box" idea we spoke about at Connect might be the path
to solve this. For those who weren't at the bar at midnight in Hong
Kong: The "black box" idea is a change to how LAVA would run tests.
Instead of having the LAVA dispatcher drive everything host side, we'd
boot into a test image, let it do stuff, pull files from a know
partition, analyze and report results.
If we were to do that, decisions like networking would be completely up
to you(the test image). This concept works best with an SD-mux set up.
However, it could work with our master images also.
I still worry 12.07 might be a little ambitious for such a fundamental
change, but I think we should discuss.
