This is the testing framework for the Novena laptop. It is originally based on the Kovan testing framework.

Tests are arranged as a series of subclasses of the NovenaTest class. Each test must implement the void runTest(void) method, and should emit a testStateUpdated(int level, int value, QString *message) signal every time the test state is updated.

A minimal test would look like:

 #include "novenatest.h"
 class SimpleTest : public NovenaTest
 {
     Q_OBJECT
     public:
         SimpleTest() { }
         void runTest() {
             emit testStateUpdated(TEST_INFO, 0, new QString("Test completed"));
         }
};

You would then add this test to novenatestengine.cpp in the loadAllTests() method by adding the following:

tests.append(new SimpleTest());

When your runTest thread exits, if it hasn't emitted a TEST_ERROR state, then the test is assumed to have completed successfully.

The following tests have been defined. Note that tests in italics have not yet been written:

• Power logger (Logs current draw from Senoko)
• SATA prober (Ensures a SATA drive is attached)
• MMC checker (Ensures internal MMC is in place)
• Firmware loader (Loads firmware onto internal MMC, in the background)
• HDMI tester (Puts patterns on the screen)
• USB tester (Loopback?)
• PCIe tester (enumeration? Ethernet loopback?)
• EEPROM tester (Verify EEPROM exists, update it if necessary)
• String printer (Useful for printing status messages)

While the base system software runs off the external MMC card, the actual factory test program, along with the image to be burned, all reside on a separate USB drive. This drive MUST contain a valid partition table, and MUST have the first partition be VFAT-formatted. The disk MUST contain the following files:

• novena-test: The program built here, with NOVENA_BAREBOARD defined in novenatestengine.cpp
• gpbb_fpga.bit: Available in the files/ directory
• novena_fpga-1.22.bit: Available in the files/ directory
• runtest.sh: Available in the files/ directory
• sounds/: A directory containing .wav files. Suggested to be pentatonic.
• networkmanager-config: A NetworkManager keyfile configuration for the wifi access point used in the factory

• novena-test: The program built here, with NOVENA_DESKTOP defined in novenatestengine.cpp
• runtest.sh: Available in the files/ directory
• sounds/: A directory containing .wav files. Suggested to be pentatonic.
• senoko.hex: Senoko configuration file, output from ChibiOS-3 build
• stm32flash: Executable binary output from stm32flash repo
• debian packages: The .deb files referenced in the PackageInstaller() test in novenatestengine.cpp

Optionally, you can add this file:

• networkmanager-config: A NetworkManager keyfile configuration for the wifi access point used in the factory

• novena-test: The program built here, with NOVENA_LAPTOP defined in novenatestengine.cpp
• runtest.sh: Available in the files/ directory
• sounds/: A directory containing .wav files. Suggested to be pentatonic.
• senoko.hex: Senoko configuration file, output from ChibiOS-3 build
• stm32flash: Executable binary output from stm32flash repo
• debian packages: The .deb files referenced in the PackageInstaller() test in novenatestengine.cpp

Optionally, you can add this file:

• networkmanager-config: A NetworkManager keyfile configuration for the wifi access point used in the factory

Put the factory test on its own root filesystem image, and change the disk ID to 0x4e6f7646 ("NovF"):

fdisk /dev/sdb
x
i
0x4e6f7646
r
w

Then create a uEnv.txt file in the root, containing the following:

finalhook=setenv rec factory ; setenv bootargs init=/lib/systemd/systemd rootwait rw root=PARTUUID=4e6f7646-03 console=tty0

Also, create a novena-factory-test.service file:

[Unit]
Description=Novena Factory Image
DefaultDependencies=no
After=dbus.service network-pre.target systemd-sysusers.service
Before=systemd-network.target network.target multi-user.target shutdown.target graphical.target systemd-user-sessions.service novena-firstrun.service

[Service]
Type=oneshot
RemainAfterExit=yes
Restart=no
ExecStart=/usr/bin/startx xfce4-terminal
User=root

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Modify /etc/fstab on the target system. Replace all instances of platform-2198000.usdhc with platform-2194000.usdhc and add a line to mount the installation media, and create /factory:

/dev/disk/by-path/platform-ci_hdrc.1-usb-0:1.4.1:1.0-scsi-0:0:0:0-part1 /factory vfat defaults 2 2

Copy the wifi configuration file to /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/ and ensure it's chmod 0600 owned by root.

Finally, load the systemd script by running "systemctl enable novena-factory-test".

Something like this:

#!/bin/sh
root=/mnt
sudo cp novena-factory-test.service "${root}/lib/systemd/system/"
sudo chroot "${root}" systemctl enable novena-factory-test
sudo sed -i 's/2198000/2194000/g' "${root}/etc/fstab"
echo '/dev/disk/by-path/platform-ci_hdrc.1-usb-0:1.4.1:1.0-scsi-0:0:0:0-part1 /factory vfat defaults 2 2' >> "${root}/etc/fstab"
sudo mkdir "${root}/factory"
sudo cp wifi_config "${root}/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/"
sudo chmod 0600 "${root}/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/wifi_config"
sudo chown root:root "${root}/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/wifi_config"
