Hi, list: Just want to let you know, especially for the validation team members, I am trying to do Android support on lava, so I created a branch, lp:~jeremychang/lava/android-support Hi, Paul, maybe you can help me give it a review. Thanks! . I am on my personal environment, so I changed some configs to fit my environment for testing. Also I documented them here in https://wiki.linaro.org/JeremyChang/Sandbox/LavaAndroidValidation
Basically I would like to a make a prototype based on the existing Lava to do the testing/Validation for Android from the deployment to submit_result. Now I already made it do the continual process of starting from the deployment, reboot to Android, do basic test and simple monkey test.
Now what I thinking is, also the trickiest item seems that how to present the test results of various Android validations to dashboard [1]. Due to platform difference, abrek, python code could not run on Android target, there is a need to generate the json bundle in lava for sending to the dashboard. I think for android validation, benchmark/testing, abrek could not be used.
I still need to figure out more about the powerfulness the dashboard, like when the attachment function should be used for uploading the result?
Regarding to generating the bundle, I will check what's the way to generate the reasonable software_context and hardware_context for android.
Hopefully soon android images can be tested by lava with the dailybuild android image tarballs [2].
Same time welcome any feedback. Thanks.
Regards, -Jeremy Chang
