### Automated testing

Run tests on FPGA (note python3.11 or above required), adjust the /dev part to the UART as required.
Run tests on simulation (note python3.11 or above required). FPGA testing is currently done in CI and requires quite a few add-ons to your board.

Run tests on FPGA (note python3.11 or above required), adjust the /dev part to the UART as required. You will need to connect a Raspberry Pi sense HAT and a temperature sensor to QWIIC 1.

Run the USB connection test:

Connect the user USB to a laptop's USB-A port. The UART should show this:
```

Test passed; disconnected from USB.

Run the USB echo test. First you need to apply the following diff:

Check the UART output is:

```

Open USB serial output. For me this is `screen /dev/ttyUSB1`. Check that the output is:
```
Hello from CHERI USB!
```
Also type into the USB screen instance and see that it is echoed on the UART side.

Here are some checks that you should also do for which there are no detailed instructions:
- Check the Ethernet is working.
- Check the manual pinmux test over PMOD.
- Check the RS-485 is working.
