Summary

In this chapter, we explored the different methods that we can use to create a test harness for MicroPython modules and application code. While there are many methods available, ranging from very simple to highly sophisticated, we implemented a simple test harness that you can easily leverage and use as the foundation to build even more useful harnesses. The harness that we built used the device under test to simulate system inputs, which allowed us to keep the test harness' costs low and required no additional external hardware.

In the next chapter, we are going to dive deep into the MicroPython kernel and learn how we can customize the startup code and the kernel for our own application needs. As part of this project, we are going to compile our own kernel and deploy it to a development board that doesn't come with MicroPython installed on it by default.
