Description

OpenQA is a powerful testing tool developed originally for openSUSE and now used by various major distributions for integration testing. Within Codethink we're also using it to test mainline Linux on hardware across several CPU architectures and GPU stacks.

This talk will show how to create screenshot tests that can quickly verify your graphics pipeline is working. First I'll show how to quickly run the tests in a developer laptop using the QEMU backend. Then we'll look at a pipeline that builds a custom kernel and tests it on real hardware, using the same OpenQA testsuite.
