The mbed-host-tests module and mbedhtrun and mbedflsh utilities are used during ARM Mbed Enabled device development for:

* Driving test binary flashing * Device reset * Test execution

The default binary flashing method is one supported by mbed-enabled devices: a binary file is copied onto the mbed-enabled DUT's (Device Under Test) mounted drive (MSD). This procedure will automatically flash device with given binary file content.

The default DUT reset method is one supported by mbed-enabled devices: the serial port (CDC) "sendBreak" command resets the target MCU on mbed-enabled platform.

The test execution phase will consist of:

* Opening connection between host computer and DUT * DUT will send to host preamble with test runner information such as: - test environment version - test timeout - preferred host test script (Python script which is used to supervise/instrument test execution) * Host will spawn host test script and test execution will be instrumented * Exchange data (in most cases text) between host and DUT

This package contains the Python 3 module and mbedhtrun and mbedflsh utilities.
