PXIe controller COM Express based testing support
Overview
This project describes the production test system for the
PXIeCOMe card.
It is based on a PXIeCOMe carrier
board and a Kontron COMe-bCL6 COM Express module.
The test system is based on the PTS (Production Test Suite)
framework.
It is used in the pxie-ctl-comexpress-tst project as an independent module which should be installed on the mSATA module used by the COM Express module during the test.
