Suppose we fired up a guest OS and captured the console output. Is there a way to make that guest OS shut down automatically at the end of the test and to extract the test results?
Ah, sorry, I thought you were already doing something like that, i.e. that perhaps you could reuse some kernel build you already had and avoiding a full rebuild/`mrproper`. The KUnit Python script uses QEMU and parses the results; e.g. you could look for the results lines like:
# Totals: pass:133 fail:0 skip:0 total:133 ok 2 rust_doctests_kernel
Alternatively, I could clone a copy of the current archive into a temporary directory, "make mrproper" there, run kunit normally, then clean up the temporary directory. Extra storage, but quite a bit more robust and user-friendly.
Other thoughts?
Thanx, Paul
