Hi Denis,

This patch series adds a test generation infrastructure for packages to Buildroot.
The generated tests are robotframework tests.

Bottom line: I'm not in favour of this series either. Of course, the first patch adding python-robotframework is still relevant independently.

Ok, thanks for the answer :)

Hi Denis,

We discussed this again at the BR Developer meeting in Dublin, and concluded
that we're going to proceed with the simpler and less-invasive unit-test-based approach. It is in fact already running on Jenkins at [1]. Therefore, I've marked most of the series as Rejected in patchwork.

Regarding python-robotframework, as mentioned before, it is still relevant.
However, neither of the two versions you submitted are suitable at the moment:
- the version of [2] is still using 2.9rc1;
- the version of [3] add a host- version which we don't need. Note that the host-version was not even needed in this series: for something like this, we expect it to be installed on the system rather than building it. So these patches are both marked as Changes Requested.

Regards,
Arnout
