Hi everyone — I’m working on a small embedded-hardware project (sensors + ESP32) and starting to think about how to track testing results, bug reports, and feature requests in a unified way. I recently saw an article https://www.theengineeringprojects.com/2021/11/esp32-mqtt.html about using ESP32 to collect motion-sensor data and log it
And I’m wondering if anyone has used SpiraTest for managing tests or issues that come from hardware/firmware projects rather than pure software.
I’ve noticed a few Arduino forum threads where people manually track sensor test results in spreadsheets, and some Raspberry Pi groups that use custom scripts to export logs, but none seem to mention formal QA tools. Do you think SpiraTest adapts well to hardware-driven bug tracking (e.g. sensor failures, firmware bugs, hardware configs)? Any tips on setting it up for mixed hardware/software environments?
Hi Aria
We cannot share customer names because it is confidential, but we have several hardware / IoT companies using SpiraTest. Typically they log the data into SpiraTest using our REST API and/or language plugins. The big question is the level of granularity of the data, since you're testing individual devices and need to log the results against the discrete components vs. just a software platform. So you'll want to setup the appropriate custom properties and define the necessary parameters and test configurations if you want SpiraTest to manage the input data permutations.
I'd contact us if you'd like a more personalized answer (and where we can share customer specific examples).
Here's some public case studies:
