The way tinytest was used in qemu-arm test target is that it didn't test much. MicroPython tests are based on matching the test output against reference output, but qemu-arm's implementation didn't do that, it effectively tested just that there was no exception during test execution. "upytesthelper" wrapper was introduce to fix it, so switch test implementation to use it. This requires passing different CFLAGS when building the firmware, so split out test-related parts to Makefile.test.

This is experimental, community-supported port for Cortex-M emulation as
|
|
provided by QEMU (http://qemu.org).
|
|
|
|
The purposes of this port are to enable:
|
|
|
|
1. Continuous integration
|
|
- run tests against architecture-specific parts of code base
|
|
2. Experimentation
|
|
- simulation & prototyping of anything that has architecture-specific
|
|
code
|
|
- exploring instruction set in terms of optimising some part of
|
|
MicroPython or a module
|
|
3. Streamlined debugging
|
|
- no need for JTAG or even an MCU chip itself
|
|
- no need to use OpenOCD or anything else that might slow down the
|
|
process in terms of plugging things together, pressing buttons, etc.
|
|
|
|
This port will only work with with [GCC ARM Embedded](launchpad.net/gcc-arm-embedded)
|
|
toolchain and not with CodeSourcery toolchain. You will need to modify
|
|
`LDFLAGS` if you want to use CodeSourcery's version of `arm-none-eabi`.
|
|
The difference is that CodeSourcery needs `-T generic-m-hosted.ld` while
|
|
ARM's version requires `--specs=nano.specs --specs=rdimon.specs` to be
|
|
passed to the linker.
|
|
|
|
To build and run image with builtin testsuite:
|
|
|
|
make -f Makefile.test test
|
