## Running Hardware In The Loop Tests
|
||||
|
||||
In order to run the tests, you'll need to setup a couple of things:
|
||||
|
||||
- copy the `.env.example` file in `/tests/` and rename it to `.env`. Then, open it and fill out the network details - SSID and Password.
|
||||
- plug in your board to your pc and wait for it to boot.
|
||||
- open the terminal (`ctrl/cmd + j` in VSC) and head over to `/tests/` directory.
|
||||
|
||||
Once there, you can invoke the tests with `UV` like so:
|
||||
|
||||
```cmd
|
||||
uv run pytest --board=<your board name> --connection=COM<the number your board connected to>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This will auto select every test we have, connect to your board automatically and have pytest skip tests that don't fit your board.
|
||||
For example, tests involving switching modes to UVC and testing commands over there are disabled for esp32 based boards as only esp32s3 can do it. Same goes for WiFi for FaceFocus Boards.
|
||||
|
||||
If you see any fails, you can try rerunning them one by one with:
|
||||
|
||||
```cmd
|
||||
uv run pytest --board=<your board name> --connection=COM<the number your board connected to> -k name_of_the_test
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Or rerun every single failed test like so:
|
||||
|
||||
```cmd
|
||||
uv run pytest --board=<your board name> --connection=COM<the number your board connected to> --lf
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Sometimes tests will fail due to timeouts, this is normal.
|
||||
|
||||
You should see the tests starting to go off, with any luck - all of them passing, your board should also start reacting to the changes - reboots, blinking lights etc are **expected** as we're performing hardware in the loop tests.
|
||||
|
||||
### Warning:
|
||||
|
||||
After the testing session ends **WE WILL RESET THE BOARD**, any changes you've made yourself to it will be lost. This is done to ensure that the test we perform are unaffected by any changes done by said tests.
|
||||
If we skipped that, tests involving adding fake networks would break some that rely on the board connecting to real ones in a timely manner, for example.
|
||||
|
||||
There is currently no way to skip that behavior.

||||

||||
## Troubleshooting

### USB Composite (UVC + CDC)

||||
|
||||
When UVC support is compiled in, the device enumerates as a composite USB device:
|
||||
|
||||
- UVC interface: video streaming (JPEG frames)
|
||||
- CDC (virtual COM): command channel accepting newline‑terminated JSON objects

### Monitoring (LED Current)
|
||||
|
||||
Enabled with `MONITORING_LED_CURRENT=y` plus shunt/gain settings. The task samples every `CONFIG_MONITORING_LED_INTERVAL_MS` ms and maintains a filtered moving average over `CONFIG_MONITORING_LED_SAMPLES` samples. Use `get_led_current` command to query.

|
||||
|
||||
### Board Profiles
|
||||
|
||||
Each file under `boards/` overlays `sdkconfig.base_defaults`. The merge order: base → board file → (optional) dynamic Wi‑Fi overrides via `switchBoardType.py` flags. Duplicate trailing segment directories collapse to unique keys.
|
||||
|
||||
- UVC doesn’t appear on the host?
|
||||
- Switch mode to UVC via CLI tool, replug USB and wait 20s.
|
||||
|
||||
### Adding a new board configuration
|
||||
|
||||
1. Create a new config file under `boards/` (you can nest folders): for example `boards/my_family/my_variant`.
|
||||
2. Populate it with only the `CONFIG_...` lines that differ from the shared defaults. Shared baseline lives in `boards/sdkconfig.base_defaults` and is always merged first.
|
||||
3. The board key the script accepts will be the relative path with `/` turned into `_` (example: `boards/my_family/my_variant` -> `my_family_my_variant`).

5. If you accidentally create two files that collapse to the same key the last one found wins—rename to keep keys unique.
|
||||
|
||||
Tips:
|
||||
|
||||
- Use `--diff` after adding a board to sanity‑check only the intended keys change.
|
||||
- For Wi‑Fi overrides on first flash: add none—pass `--ssid` / `--password` when switching if needed.

## Troubleshooting
|
||||
|
||||
### LED Status / Error Patterns
|
||||
|
||||
The firmware uses a small set of LED patterns to indicate status and blocking errors. When `LED_DEBUG_ENABLE` is disabled and `LED_EXTERNAL_AS_DEBUG` is enabled the external IR LED mirrors ONLY error patterns (0%/50% duty). Non‑error patterns are not mirrored.
