Hello everyone

2) Does iio have a test infrastructure? I know there are autobuilders
playing with the iio.git testing branch, but how does it work?

Also, if there is no test beyond building
+ booting

+ coccinelle
+ sparse
+ smatch
+ automatically sending fixes based on reports produced by
  debugging tools

Earlier they used to also give performance + power tests too.

The build farm maintains around ~800 repos:

You can find `iio` in above list.

Build testing in around ~150 or more kernel configs in ~1-2 hours
And sending the report immediately to the author by bisecting the
commit on the first failure.
Nice! Thanks for all the references and information. I didn't know how
powerful those tests are!
I don't work for Intel but I have experienced the power of the
beast ;)

Anyway, for other queries on the development process, I think Rodrigo
Siqueira can help you too with a quick feedback belonging to the
same university.
Thank you. He's helping me a lot, but regarding Co-Developed-by usage,
he wasn't entirely sure, either, and that's why I asked here. But
Jonathan already helped me.
Thanks!
