Test result output

Utility function for abstraction of test result output format. More...

Detailed Description

Utility function for abstraction of test result output format.

The TURO module provides an abstraction layer allowing salient data to be provided for tests independent of format or medium. The intention is to have a test that expects some data, for example, reading some registers, output the results in a know way, for example json. This should help keeping the test results stable and not lock anyone into a particular format. If JSON is too heavy all tests using this can be swapped out for something lighter, for example CBOR. Then the tests should not have to be adapted. There can also be python layers that coordinate the output results, ideally done with riotctrl.

Only one implementation should be selected, for example, test_utils_result_output_json.

Some of the design decisions include:

Some limitations are:

Modules

 Test Utils Result Output Helpers
 Common functions and helpers that all implementations can use.
 
 Test Utils Result Output Implementation API
 The turo API that must have an implementation.
 
 Test result output plain text
 Enable this module to have results output as text.
 
 Test result output structure
 Enable this module to check the result structure.
 
 Test result output with JSON
 Enable this module to have results output as json.
