Stb-tester issues commands to the device-under-test in the same way a real user does (typically using an infrared remote control).
Stb-tester then checks the behaviour of the device-under-test by analysing the device's video output.
For an overview of stb-tester's capabilities, see the videos at https://stb-tester.com/videos/.
Testcases are written in the Python programming language. They look like this:
def test_that_i_can_tune_to_bbc_one_from_the_guide():
stbt.press("KEY_EPG")
stbt.wait_for_match("Guide.png")
stbt.press("KEY_OK")
stbt.wait_for_match("BBC One.png")
stbt.wait_for_motion()
See the Python API documentation for more details.
