CCS/TM4C1294NCPDT: How do I test my embedded project on my development machine in CCS?

Oliver Douglas69

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Until now I have only done manual testing of my C code, on the target device (Cortex M4 microcontrollers in this case). Now I would like to build a version of my project that will run natively (x86 Linux) so that I can do automated testing with mock hardware devices. It would be very nice if I could configure CCS to automatically do regression testing when I compile.

I have searched for materials that explain how to do this, but couldn't find any. Can anyone point me towards the documentation for doing this kind of testing with CCS? Thanks.

Hi Oliver,
The most common method people test their target application with is to use DSS to create automated test to run on the actual hardware target:
processors.wiki.ti.com/.../Debug_Server_Scripting

Javascript is the support solution where people can run a DSS javascript to automate tests to perform on the target. People have also created Java applications to run on their host machine that call the DSS APIs to control the target. People have used JUnit, which is a test framework for running tests with Java.

Hope this helps

Thanks Ki. I was looking for something a bit different, but this answers my question.
