Feature Overview
================
This page provides an overview of the current TF-A Tests feature set. The
:ref:`Change Log & Release Notes` document provides details of changes made
since the last release.
Current Features
----------------
The following TF-A features are currently tested to some extent (this list is
not exhaustive):
- `SMC Calling Convention`_
- `Power State Coordination Interface (PSCI)`_
- `Software Delegated Exception Interface (SDEI)`_
- `Performance Measurement Framework (PMF)`_
- Communication and interaction with the `Test Secure Payload (TSP)`_
- `Firmware update`_ (or recovery mode)
- `EL3 payload`_ boot flow
- `Secure partition`_ support
These tests are not a compliance test suite for the Arm interface standards used
in TF-A (such as PSCI).
They do not cover 100% of the TF-A code. The fact that all tests pass does not
mean that TF-A is free of bugs.
They are not reference code. They should not be considered as the official way
to test hardware/firmware features. Instead, they are provided as example code
to experiment with and improve on.
Still to come
-------------
- Additional tests
- Support for new platforms
- Design improvements
- Stability improvements
- Enhancements to the test framework to make it easier to implement tests
- Fixes for known issues (detailed in :ref:`Change Log & Release Notes`)
