.. Warning::
    Nanaimo is evolving rapidly right now. We will signal its readiness for alpha integrations by
    bumping the version number to 0.1.x. For now we provide this repo to let you follow along and
    comment but we suggest you hold off relying on any version < 0.1.x.

   A delicious Python treat that makes on-target testing sweet and satisfying.

Nanaimo is a set of utilities and plugins designed to enable integration of hardware test apparatuses
with pytest. This can allow on-target tests to run as part of continuous integration pipelines like
`Buildkite`_, `Bamboo`_, or `Jenkins`_.

   Example of S32K dev boards attached to Raspberry PI CI workers running the `Buildkite`_ agent and using Nanaimo.

Nanaimo is designed to enable testing of software-defined, physical components in isolation to
provide pre-integration verification of software interfaces and behavioral contracts. It adapts
asynchronous control and monitoring of these components to fit familiar testing idioms
(e.g. x-unit testing) using the popular python test framework, `pytest`_.

Nanaimo is *not* a simulation framework and is not designed to support the complexity of a full hardware-in-the-loop platform.
Instead it's focused on testing small integrations with a few hardware components and instruments using concepts, syntax,
and frameworks familiar to software engineers. Examples of these small integrations might include verifying a SPI driver for a
microcontroller or ensuring the upload time for a serial bootloader meets expected Key-Performance-Indicators (KPIs). To do this
Nanaimo abstractions provide async interfaces to hardware either directly using available communication protocols
(e.g. serial or IP networks) or by invoking a CLI provided by the instrument vendor. Because of this latter use case some
instruments will require additional programs be available in a test environment.

This design is an amalgam of the `TLYF`_ (Test Like You Fly) methodology and the `Swiss cheese`_ model of
failure analysis. Specifically; Nanaimo facilitates testing on actual or representative hardware
for the first integration of software into a part or subassembly. Traditionally software engineers were
responsible only for unit-testing and Software-In-the-Loop (SIL) simulation of their code. Nanaimo encourages
software engineers to also provide hardware integration tests by enabling Hardware-In-the-Loop
`continuous-integration <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuous_integration>`_ (HIL-CI, perhaps?).
