toranj test framework

toranj is a test framework for OpenThread.

It provides two modes:

  • toranj-cli which enables testing of OpenThread using its CLI interface.
  • toranj-ncp which enables testing of the combined behavior of OpenThread (in NCP mode), spinel interface, and wpantund driver on linux.

toranj features:

  • It is developed in Python.
  • It can be used to simulate multiple nodes forming complex network topologies.
  • It allows testing of network interactions between many nodes (IPv6 traffic exchanges).
  • toranj in NCP mode runs wpantund natively with OpenThread in NCP mode on simulation platform (real-time).
  • toranj in CLI mode runs ot-cli-ftd on simulation platform (real-time).
  • toranj tests run as part of GitHub Actions pull request validation in OpenThread and wpantund GitHub projects.
