Neat, so does Google, they talked about this at the Wireless summit. They have stuffed their code into their version of autotest: http://code.google.com/p/autotest/ The upstream autotest: http://autotest.kernel.org/ I have yet to check this code out though. > Aside from normal traffic passing, do you have any test > cases you'd like to see run? What I think we need is to take advantage of the random users of wireless-testing / compat-wireless out there and their different APs and get collection of test results of some basis tests. A very simple series of test cases like authentication, association, enabling power save and keeping that connection alive for a period of time, and some simple iperf runs would go long way. On very specific testsbeds though like yours and Google's we can focus more on more complex items like roaming. We can actually still accomplish automated roaming tests by using Orbit's mobile robot, as it goes around a grid of APs. It would be very helpful if regression tests had published results publicly. It would be really helpful if we had more coordination between those who are doing regression tests. >> The all in one git am'able file can be downloaded here: >> >> >> http://bombadil.infradead.org/~mcgrof/patches/ath9k/2010/09/all-ps-fixes-09-14-v1.patch > > Is there any way to get automated emails for commits going into > wireless-testing?
