Unit testing Linux kernel drivers
<p>The technical presentation is about how to use mocks to unit test Linux kernel drivers. The presentation explains how mocks help validating operational code. For instance by checking parameters passed to mocked function, or by configuring the mock to return an error code.</p>
<p>The presentation will include some unit test examples that use a mocking tool which is called EasyMock. I'm the author of EasyMock.</p>

<p>The concerns about code complexity, cybersecurity and LTS have made a continuous testing infrastructure a must have.</p> <p>The tests must take place both in virtual and real target. Virtual target because developers never get enough physical boards to test from, and real in order to limit virtualization/reality deviation.</p>

<p>As distributed systems evolve, the testing scale multiplies, asking for dozens of test cases, combined with different application benchmarks (e.g., performance, correctness), and arbitrary operating conditions. Kubernetes holds a promise to enable automation and process improvement directly contributing to a system's reliability. Establishing a declarative API and providing a cheap and disposable environment, Kubernetes makes it easy to create uniform experiments, which may run manually or be ...

<p>Maintaining software systems for a long time is hard. Backporting kernel patches is a complex and expensive overhead. The Linux project's position is - quite rightly - to instruct down-streams to upgrade to the latest release.</p> <p>In practice, upgrading is difficult, scary and sometimes avoided. It takes time and effort before there is enough confidence that new releases will work in context: full system testing in embedded environments can be arduous. What if we could have continuous, ...

<p>In this session we introduce and explain the integration between LAVA (Linaro Automated Validation Architecture) and GitLab as part of the testing efforts in the Oniro OS from Eclipse foundation. The session will cover brief introductions to LAVA and Oniro, integration with GitLab and also present on how we provide vendors the opportunity to test the full software stack on the live devices in-house in completely integrated manner with the main lab and have the test results available for ...

<p>The ever-continuing push for digitalisation has increased our reliance on trust services of various kinds, filling various needs relating to document signing, code signing, authorization tokens, and so forth. Many of these trust services rely on public-key infrastructure (PKI) and X.509 certificates.</p> <p>The sensitive nature of these tools makes them difficult to use in a testing environment. On the one hand, exposing access to production keys in your CI is obviously a terrible idea. But ...
