htrun has extensive command line. In most cases htrun will be run in background:
- driving test binary flashing,
- device reset and
- test execution.
Default binary flashing method is one supported by mbed-enabled devices: binary file is copied on mbed-enabled DUT (Device Under Test) mounted drive (MSD). This procedure will automatically flash device with given binary file content.
Default DUT reset method is one supported by mbed-enabled devices: serial port (CDC) "sendBreak" command resets target MCU on mbed-enabled platform.
Test execution phase will consist of:
- Opening connection between host computer and DUT,
- DUT will send to host preamble with test runner information such as:
- test environment version,
- test timeout,
- preferred host test script (Python script which is used to supervise/instrument test execution),
- Host will spawn host test script and test execution will be instrumented
- Exchange data (in most cases text) between host and DUT,
This chapter will present a few examples of how you can use htrun command line to execute tests. In most cases test automation tools such as Greentea will execute htrun implicitly. There are cases when we want to execute htrun independently. Mostly in situation when we want to:
- debug our code and have binary + host test instrumentation on,
- prototype or
- just want to replace test runner in another OS with one compatible with mbed-enabled devices.
All htrun needs is name of the binary you want to flash and method of flashing!
Flash binary file /path/to/file/binary.bin using mount point D:. Use serial port COM4 to communicate with DUT:
$ htrun -f /path/to/file/binary.bin -d D: -p COM4
Flash (use shell command copy) binary file /path/to/file/binary.bin using mount point D:. Use serial port COM4 to communicate with DUT:
$ htrun -f /path/to/file/binary.bin -d D: -p COM4 -c copy
Skip flashing phase (e.g. you've already flashed this device with /path/to/file/binary.bin binary). Use serial port COM4 to communicate with DUT:
$ htrun -f /path/to/file/binary.bin -d D: -p COM4 --skip-flashing
Flash binary file /path/to/file/binary.bin using mount point D:. Use serial port COM4 with baudrate 115200 to communicate with DUT:
$ htrun -f /path/to/file/binary.bin -d D: -p COM4:115200
As above but we will skip reset phase (not so common but in some cases can be used to suppress reset phase for some reasons):
$ htrun -f /path/to/file/binary.bin -d D: -p COM4:115200 --skip-reset
Flash binary file /path/to/file/binary.bin using mount point D:. Use serial port COM4 with default baudrate to communicate with DUT. Do not send __sync key-value protocol synchronization packet to DUT before preamble read:
$ htrun -f /path/to/file/binary.bin -d D: -p COM4 --sync=0
Note: Sync packet management allows you to manipulate the way htrun sends __sync packet(s) to DUT. With current settings we can force on htrun to send __sync packets in this manner:
--sync=0- No sync packets will be sent to DUT.--sync=-1-__syncpackets will be sent unless we will reach timeout or proper response is sent from DUT.--sync=N- Where N is integer > 0. Send up to N__syncpackets to target platform. Response is sent unless we get response from target platform or timeout occurs.
Flash local file /path/to/file/binary.bin to remote device resource (platform K64F) provided by remote_client GRM service available on IP address 10.2.203.31 and port: 8000. Force serial port connection to remote device 9600 with baudrate:
$ htrun -p :9600 -f /path/to/file/binary.bin -m K64F --grm remote_client:10.2.203.31:8000
Command line switch --grm has format: <module_name>:<IP_address>:<port_number>.
<module_name>- name of Python module to load as remote resource manager.<IP_address>and<port_number>- IP address and port of remote resource manager.
Note: Switch -m <platform_name> is required to tell Global Resource Management which platform to request.
Note: Command line switch --grm implicitly forces --skip-flashing and --skip-reset because both flags are used for locally available DUTs.
This option is designed for htrun to use Arm Fast Models.
The "--fm" option only available when mbed-fastmodel-agent module is installed :
Load local file /path/to/file/binary.elf to onto fastmodel FVP_MPS2_m3 simulators:
$ htrun -f /path/to/file/binary.elf -m FVP_MPS2_M3 --fm DEFAULT
Command line switch format --fm <config_name>.
<config_name>- either pre-defined CONFIG_NAME from mbedfm or a local config file for the Fast Models.
Note: Switch -m <platform_name> is required to tell this fastmodel connection which Fastmodel to request.
Note: Command line switch --fm implicitly forces --skip-flashing and --skip-reset because both flags are used for locally available DUTs.
List available host tests names, class names and origin:
$ htrun --list
List available host tests names, class names and origin. Load additional host tests from /path/to/host_tests directory:
$ htrun --list -e /path/to/host_tests
List available reset and flashing plugins:
$ htrun --plugins
Note that some plugin could need some manual installation for extra application before.
Ex: Flash binary file /path/to/file/binary.bin using STM32CubeProgrammer tool. Use serial port COM4 with baudrate 115200 to communicate with DUT:
htrun -c stprog -f /path/to/file/binary.bin -p COM4:115200
In this example, STM32_Programmer_CLI application has to be in the environment path.
htrun is distributed along with greentea-host module as a dependency sources and its command line tool called htrun.
greentea-host module is distributed via PyPI. We recommend you use the application pip.
Note: Python 2.7.9 onwards include pip by default, so you may have pip already.
To install mbed-ls from PyPI use command:
$ pip install greentea-host --upgrade
To install the mbed test suite, first clone the greentea repository:
$ git clone https://github.com/ARMmbed/greentea.git
Change the directory to the greentea directory:
$ cd greentea
Now you are ready to install htrun:
$ python setup.py install
Note: setup.py will install both greentea (gt) and htrun command line tools.
To check whether the installation was successful try running the htrun --help command and check that it returns information (you may need to restart your terminal first):
$ htrun --help
Usage: htrun [options]
Flash, reset and perform host supervised tests on Mbed enabled platforms
Options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
Mbed's test suite (codenamed Greentea) supports the test supervisor concept. This concept is realized by this module. htrun is a collection of host tests. Host test is script written in Python, which is executed in parallel with the test suite runner (a binary running on the target hardware / device under test) to monitor the test execution's progress or to control the test flow (interaction with the mbed device under test - DUT). The host test is also responsible for grabbing the test result, or deducing it from the test runner's behavior.
Key-value protocol was developed and is used to provide communication layer between DUT (device under test) and host computer. Key-value protocol defined host computer as master and DUT as slave.
- Slave side APIs and key-value protocol implementation is encapsulated in greentea-client module.
- Master side APIs and key-value protocol is encapsulated in
htrun.
htrun responsibilities are:
- Flash mbed device with given binary.
- Reset mbed device after flashing to start test suite execution.
- Use key-value protocol to handshake with device and make sure correct host test script is executed to supervise test suite execution.
- Run key-value protocol state machine and execute event callbacks.
- Monitor serial port traffic to parse valid key-value protocol events.
- Make decision if test test suite passed / failed / returned error.
- Provide command line tool interface, command:
htrunafter module installation (on host). - Provide few basic host test implementations which can be used out of the box for test development. For example the basic host test (called
defaultordefault_auto) just parses events from DUT and finished host test execution whenendevent is received. Other included in this module host tests can help you to test timers or RTC.
- Text based protocol, format
{{KEY;VALUE}}}. - Master-slave mode where host is master and DUT is slave.
- Simple key-value protocol is introduced. It is used to communicate between DUT and host. Protocol main features:
- Protocol introduced is master-slave protocol, where master is host and slave is device under test.
- Transport layer consist of simple
{{ KEY ; VALUE }} \ntext messages sent by slave (DUT). Both key and value are strings with allowed character set limitations (to simplify parsing and protocol parser itself). Message ends with required by DUT K-V parser\ncharacter. - DUT always (except for handshake phase) initializes communication by sending key-value message to host.
- To avoid miscommunication between master and slave simple handshake protocol is introduces:
- Master (host) sends sync packet:
{{__sync;UUID-STRING}}}with message value containing random UUID string. - DUT waits for
{{__sync;...}}message in input stream and replies with the same packer{{__sync;...}}. - After correct sync packet is received by master, messages
{{__timeout;%d}}and{{__host_test_name}}are expected. - Host parses DUTs tx stream and generates events sent to host test.
- Each event is a tuple of
(key, value, timestamp), where key and value are extracted from message and
- Master (host) sends sync packet:
- Host tests are now driven by simple async feature. Event state machine on master side is used to process events from DUT. Each host test is capable of registering callbacks, functions which will be executed when event occur. Event name is identical with KEY in key-value pair send as event from/to DUT.
- DUT slave side uses simple parser to parse key-value pairs from stream. All non key-value data will be ignored. Blocking wait for an event API is provided: This implies usage of master-slave exchange between DUT and host where DUT uses non-blocking send event API to send to host (master) event and can wait for response. Master implements corresponding response after receiving event and processing data.
- Message parsing transforms key-value string message to Python event in this order:
{{key;value}}string captured on DUT output.
- key-value data becomes a recognizable message with key (string) and value (string) payload.
- Event is formed in host test, a tuple of
key(string),value(string),timestampwheretimestampis time of message reception in Python time.time() format (float, time in seconds since the epoch as a floating point number.).
- Message parsing transforms key-value string message to Python event in this order:
- Each host test registers callbacks for available events.
- Few keys' names in key-value messaging protocol are promoted to be considered "system events". Their names are used by event loop mechanism to communicate between DUT, host and various internal components. Please do not use restricted even names for your own private events. What's more:
- User can't register callbacks to "system events" with few exceptions.
- Reserved event/message keys have leading
__in name:__sync- sync message, used by master and DUT to handshake.__notify_sync_failed- sent by host when sync response not received from DUT.__timeout- timeout in sec, sent by DUT after{{sync;UUID}}is received.__version-greentea-clientversion send from DUT to host.__host_test_name- host test name, sent by DUT after{{sync;UUID}}is received.__notify_prn- sent by host test to print log message.__notify_conn_lost- sent by host test's connection process to notify serial port connection lost.__notify_complete- sent by DUT, async notificaion about test case result (true, false, none).__coverage_start- sent by DUT, coverage data.__testcase_start- sent by DUT, test case start data.__testcase_finish- sent by DUT, test case result.__exit- sent by DUT, test suite execution finished.__exit_event_queue- sent by host test, indicating no more events expected.
- Non-Reserved event/message keys have leading
__in name:__rxd_line- Event triggered when\nwas found on DUT RXD channel. It can be overridden (self.register_callback('__rxd_line', <callback_function>)) and used by user. Event is sent by host test to notify a new line of text was received on RXD channel.__rxd_lineevent payload (value) in a line of text received from DUT over RXD.
- Each host test (master side) has four functions used by async framework:
setup()used to initialize host test and register callbacks.result()used to return test case result whennotify_complete()is not called.teardown()used to finalize and resource freeing. It is guaranteed thatteardown()will be always called after timeout or async test completion().notify_complete(result : bool)used by host test to notify test case result. This result will be read after test suiteTIMEOUTs or after DUT send__exitmessage (test suite execution finished event).self.send_kv(key : string, value : string)- send key-value message to DUT.self.log(text : string)- send event__notify_prnwith text as payload (value). Your message will be printed in log.
- Result returned from host test is a test suite result. Test cases results are reported by DUT, usually using modified
utestframework.
greentea-client is a C++ client library that provides greentea_send_kv API for sending and greentea_parse_kv API to receive key-value pairs with the Greentea host test tool.
- Slave side key-value protocol API, see here for details.
Key-value protocol has few parts:
- Handshake - synchronize master and slave.
- Preamble exchange - DUT informs host about test parameters such as client version, test suite timeout, requested host test name etc. After this part is finished master will create requested host test and attach callbacks to user events.
- Event exchange - key-value event exchange between slave and master. In this exchange in general slave (DUT) will initialize communication. This part may end with ending pair of events
endand__exitwhereendevent carries test suite result returned by DUT and__exitevent marks test suite ended and exited. After__exitevent is received there will be no more communication between DUT and host test.
Hanshake between DUT and host is a sequence of __sync events send between host (master) and DUT (slave). This is currently only situation when master initiates communication first. Handshake should provide synchronization point where master and slave are starting the same session.
After reset:
- DUT calls function
GREENTEA_SETUP(timeout, "host test name");which - calls immediately
greentea_parse_kv(blocking parse of input serial port for event{{__sync;UUID}}). - When
__syncpacket is parsed in the stream DUT sends back (echoes)__syncevent with the same UUID as payload. UUID is a random value e.g.5f8dbbd2-199a-449c-b286-343a57da7a37.

GREENTEA_CLIENT(5, "default_auto");
// ...

[1458565466.81][CONN][RXD] {{__host_test_name;default_auto}}
In this phase DUT and host exchange events and host side is calling callbacks registered to each of the events sent from DUT. DUT can use function greentea_parse_kv to parse input stream for next incoming key-value event.
After __host_test_name event is received and before any event is consumed during this stage:
- Host state machine loads host test object by name provided in payload of
__host_test_nameevent.E.g. event ```{{____host_test_name;default_auto}} will load host test named "default_auto". - Host state machine loads callbacks registered by user in host test setup phase and hooks them to event machine. Now host is ready to handle test suite test execution. From this moment each event sent from DUT will be handled by corresponding callback registered by user in host test setup. Unknown events will not be handled and warning will be printed in log.

We can use few methods to structure out test suite and test cases. Simpliest would be to use greentea-client API and wrap one test case inside out test suite. This way of creating test suite is useful when you want to:
- write only one test case inside test suite,
- make example application (example as a test) or
- when your test suite is calling blocking forever function. For example all types of UDP/TCP servers which run in forever loop are in this category. In this case we do not expect from DUT
__exitevent at all and host test should be designed in such a way that it always return result.
In this example DUT code uses greentea-client to sync (GREENTEA_SETUP) and pass result (GREENTEA_TESTSUITE_RESULT) to Greentea. This is very simple example of how you can write tests. Note that in this example test suite only implements one test case. Actually test suite is test case at the same time. Result passed to GREENTEA_TESTSUITE_RESULT will be at the same time test case result.
- DUT implementation:
#include "greentea-client/test_env.h"
int app_start(int, char*[]) {
bool result = true;
GREENTEA_SETUP(15, "default_auto");
// test case execution and assertions
GREENTEA_TESTSUITE_RESULT(result);
return 0;
}Test suite is implemented so that it will never exit / finish its execution. For example main() or app_start() functions are implemented using infinite (endless) loop. This property have for example UDP/TCP servers (listening forever), all sorts of echo servers etc.
In this example DUT code uses greentea-client to sync (GREENTEA_SETUP) with Greentea. We are not calling GREENTEA_TESTSUITE_RESULT(result) at any time. In this example host test is responsible for providing test suite result using self.notify_complete() API or self.result() function.
You need to write and specify by name your custom host test:
- DUT side uses second argument of
GREENTEA_SETUP(timeout, host_test_name)function:
GREENTEA_SETUP(15, "wait_us_auto");-
You need to place your custom host test in
<module>/test/host_testsdirectory.- Do not forget to name host test accordingly. See below example host test
nameclass member.
- Do not forget to name host test accordingly. See below example host test

In order to work with platforms for which the hardware is still under development, and hence may not have an mbed interface chip, some "hook" files are required. Operation with these platforms is a matter for the platform development teams involved and is not, in general, supported by ARM.
The SARA NBIOT EVK board must be connected to a Windows PC using a Segger JLink box, which is used for downloading code and resetting the board. The USB port on the EVK must also be connected to the same PC. To make use of these hooks you will also require access to some proprietary tools that can be requested from u-blox.
mbed-os examples are essentially sample apps written as inspirational code for developers to understand the mbed-os APIs and coding paradigms. Before every mbed-os release all examples are tested across all supported configs and platforms. There is already a large set examples available and as they grow it is important to automate them. Hence automating examples make sense. Although it is important not to pollute them with test like instrumentation. As that will defeat the purpose of examples being simple and specific.
Hence the strategy for testing examples is based on observation instead of interaction. An example's serial logging is captured and converted into a templated log. All successive executions of this example should match this log.
Templated log simply means a log with text that does not change or regular expressions replacing original text. Below is an example of the templated log:

Hello world! Hello world!
Please observe above that all the lines that have data that changes from execution to execution (on right) have been removed. It makes it possible htrun to compare these logs. htrun matches lines from the compare log (on left) one by one. It keeps on looking for a line until it matches. Once matched it moves on to match the next line. If it finds all lines from the compare log in the target serial output stream. Then it halts and passes the examples.

To capture a log use following option:
htrun -d D: -p COM46 -m K64F -f .\BUILD\K64F\GCC_ARM\benchmark.bin --serial-output-file compare.log
Option --serial-output-file takes file name as argument and writes the target serial output to the file. Edit the file to remove lines that will change in successive executions. Put regular expressions if needed at places like benchmark numbers in above log. With these edits you are left with a template good for comparison.
Use following command to test the example and the comparison log:
htrun -d D: -p COM46 -m K64F -f .\BUILD\K64F\GCC_ARM\benchmark.bin --compare-log compare.log
In case an application requires more time to process data and generate results, you can use the option --polling-timeout to override the default timeout setting.
A tested comparison log can be checked into GitHub with the examples and can be used in the CI for example verification.
