  Description     : Embedded systems control for testing

An embedded board control python library with a focus on testing, development
and general automation. It includes a remote control layer to control boards
connected to other hosts.
The idea behind labgrid is to create an abstraction of the hardware control
layer needed for testing of embedded systems, automatic software installation
and automation during development. labgrid itself is not a testing framework,
but is intended to be combined with pytest.

I use it to test low-level software on real hardware. It is similar to
lava (which is already in Debian), but it doesn't come with a
web-interface and setup a lab feels less complex.
