Hi all,

I'm glad to let you know that these four patches about TF-M platform specific test out-of-tree build have been merged.

Documents about the usage of this new feature is in [Doc]https://tf-m-user-guide.trustedfirmware.org/docs/integration_guide/tfm_test_suites_addition.html#adding-test-services. You can now perform your test quickly. I'd be very grateful if you can send any issue of usage to me.

Best Regards Jianliang Shen

Hi all,

I'd like to merge the patches below about platform specific test out-of-tree build this week, if no further comment. This new feature is to help partners perform local platform specific tests quickly.

* [TF-M patchhttps://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/TF-M/trusted-firmware-m/+/11296] * [tf-m-tests patchhttps://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/TF-M/tf-m-tests/+/11297] * [tf-m-extras patchhttps://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/TF-M/tf-m-extras/+/11323] * [TF-M patch dochttps://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/TF-M/trusted-firmware-m/+/11336] I'd be very grateful if you can give more suggestions this week.

Best Regards Jianliang Shen

Hi all,

Thanks for Chris Brand's enhancement suggestion about platform-specific tests. I'm enabling out-of-tree build mode of platform specific test suites with tf-m-tests. Currently I have proposed the following changes:

* [TF-M patchhttps://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/TF-M/trusted-firmware-m/+/11296] * [tf-m-tests patchhttps://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/TF-M/tf-m-tests/+/11297]

My proposal supplies a flexible interface for partners to out-of-tree build local tests. With this new feature,

* Partners can perform local test quickly during development to improve test efficiency * Partners can maintain local test code outside tf-m-tests repo in case of confidential information or IP issues.

I also put an out-of-tree example test source code into tf-m-extras repo and a document in TF-M repo:

* [tf-m-extras patchhttps://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/TF-M/tf-m-extras/+/11323] * [TF-M patch dochttps://review.trustedfirmware.org/c/TF-M/trusted-firmware-m/+/11336] This example indicates that platform-specific tests can be integrated with tf-m-tests, without following tf-m-tests structure or definitions. The document introduces the usage and coding guide of this new feature.

PS: If partners would like to upstream platform specific test code, we will be glad to create a specific folder under tf-m-tests repo as Chris Brand suggested. I'd be grateful if you can take a look at the patch sets above. Any suggestion or comment is welcome.

Best Regards Jianliang Shen
