Comprehensive Reference Apparatus for Testing OpenSync (CRATOS)

CRATOS is the reference OpenSync testbed and is used by OpenSync developers and testers to develop or test the OpenSync stack on their device. Main benefits using CRATOS are:

CRATOS forms a standardized test environment for all OpenSync-enabled devices. The testbed guarantees repeatable and comparable automated and manual test case results (FUT or E2E).
CRATOS streamlines the implementation and execution of automated testing.
CRATOS enables test or development environment scaling.
CRATOS allows you to separate the development/test environment from the rest of your lab/corporate network.

Support

CRATOS users are required to take full ownership of assembling an CRATOS. Public facing CRATOS is not supported today.

OpenSync Certified partners can request a preassembled CRATOS called “OpenSync Reference Testbed (OSRT)” by using the following form. https://forms.gle/ubfSxJJmiV9QDU7t5. Learn more about Certified partners in Get Certified .
