Test Driven Development (TDD) library recommendation for nrf52x

[Thomas]

Hi everyone,

We are developing with Nrf52 and it's been a bit of a manual process for us to test our code, we use makefile so we were able to create a clunky system to run a test suite of ours but we were wondering if either Nordic or anyone in the community has experience with an existing test library, we'd appreciate any pointer.

Hi Thomas, 

I'm afraid we don't have much resources on this matter. You can find some info and an example here.

In our mesh SDK we provide unit test files can be used. Instruction here.

Hi Thomas,

We are successfully using behave together with pynrfjprog to control HCI board with connectivity FW.

This allow us to emulate peripheral or central device and run automated tests written in human readable language.

ok, thanks Hung Bui. It's a starting point, maybe at some point we'll make a write-up about what we figured out.

Hey Bkling, thanks for sharing. We also though about using pynrfjprog as harness for automating some tests, but we like you idea of using behave for BDD aspects.
