system_tests
System tests for ROS 2's rclcpp and rclpy client libraries to validate core functionality across different RMW implementations.
Overview
System Tests is a testing framework for ROS 2 that validates the complete functionality of the rclcpp (C++) and rclpy (Python) client libraries. These tests ensure that core ROS 2 features work correctly across different RMW (ROS Middleware) implementations, providing confidence in the stability and interoperability of the ROS 2 ecosystem.
Key Features
- Comprehensive Core Testing — Tests the complete ROS 2 core functionality using real nodes and services
- Multi-RMW Validation — Runs tests against each RMW implementation to ensure middleware compatibility
- Template-Based Development — Provides existing tests as templates for creating new system tests
- Service Testing — Includes examples of server and client executables for testing service interactions
- GTEST Integration — Uses Google Test framework for writing and executing test cases
Philosophy
The project follows a systematic approach to testing ROS 2's fundamental capabilities, emphasizing reliability and cross-compatibility between different middleware implementations to maintain the framework's robustness.
