Mentorship Session: Kernel Validation With Kselftest

Kernel Validation With Kselftest

April 14 | 10:00 – 11:30 am PDT

Join us for Kernel Validation With Kselftest, with Shuah Khan, Kernel Maintainer & Fellow, The Linux Foundation.

Kernel selftest is a unit and regression test suite for Kernel testing and validation. Kselftest consists of shell scripts and user-space programs that regression test Kernel API and features. Some tests span kernel and use-space with user programs working in conjunction with a kernel module to test.

In this webinar, Shuah will go over how to run all/subset of tests, how to write new tests.

The session will begin with an overview by Shuah Khan (45 minutes) and followed by Q&A – an opportunity to both ask Shuah questions and for group discussion (45 minutes).
