This Skill addresses the challenges of testing embedded systems firmware, enabling robust testing without direct hardware dependencies and facilitating Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) setups.
Use the embedded-testing skill to create a mock for the GPIOInterface and test the LED class.

Host-based testing allows you to execute firmware logic on a development machine by mocking hardware peripherals. This enables deterministic testing and efficient feedback loops without requiring physical hardware or a target microcontroller.
Yes, GTest and GMock are used for host-based unit testing of embedded firmware. By mocking hardware dependencies through abstraction layers, you can run firmware logic tests directly on your development machine for efficient feedback loops.
Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) testing is facilitated by applying specific integration patterns to create a HIL test suite. This approach tests timing-critical and peripheral integration issues while satisfying requirements for deterministic testing and testability through abstraction.
Debugging timing-critical or peripheral integration issues requires careful abstraction of hardware interactions. Ensure your mocks accurately represent the hardware dependencies and that your architecture is designed for testability through proper interface abstraction.
