I'm not sure how complete our test coverage is, though.
One entire category was intentionally left out: commands specific to targets. The goal of this first attempt of systematic of tests was to prove that "basic" functionality is there for each of the tested target. As a constraint, it is necessary that the tests can be easily be ran and reproduced. > I still have some board tests on my list-of-stuff-to-do, but I did get > most of them done.

Now we also have a list of things that are working, so it's easier to spot regressions. Regards, Edgar -- Edgar Grimberg System Developer Zylin AS Visit us at Embedded World, March 2nd-4th.
