What is Jumpstarter?

Jumpstarter is a free and open-source hardware testing tool that enables you to test your software stack on real hardware using CI/CD principles.

Automated hardware testing, often called Hardware-in-the-Loop (HiL) has been around for years in industries such as automotive and manufacturing, however, these tools are often expensive and/or inaccessible to hobbyists and open-source projects.

Jumpstarter aims to provide powerful hardware testing tools that leverage Cloud Native principles, modern CI/CD technologies, and open standards for the next generation of edge devices.
