LAVA for LITE Platforms and Tests
summary
LAVA handles LITE/Zephyr targets by running a pipeline of deploy/boot/test actions that flash monolithic RTOS images, boot via existing board methods, and match serial output with Python-style regex monitors; jobs can chain multiple test actions to work around flash/memory limits. The lab runs about 150 devices, 12 dispatchers and supports web, lava-tool and XML-RPC access, with a strong recommendation to use XML-RPC over lava-tool for automation. Examples show pass/fail counts, per-action logs, and fragile regexes that are best validated locally before submission.
