IoT¶
LAVA supports testing IoT and embedded devices using a set of deployment and boot methods designed for resource-constrained hardware.
Supported boot methods¶
Test monitors¶
Many IoT devices do not have a login shell. Instead, the firmware produces
structured output on the serial console. LAVA test
monitors
action can be used to parse these output against expected patterns to determine
pass/fail/skip/unknown results without requiring an interactive shell.
