Launch files, testus

The following two launch files are the main components for this robot. Users usually don\'t launch neither of them directly (instead, use the ones explained later).

• [hironx_ros_bridge.launch]{.title-ref} starts processes we call as \"ROS bridge\", that bridges between [ROS]{.title-ref} and [OpenRTM]{.title-ref}. This is necessary when you use ROS with both real robot and simulation.
• [hironx_startup.launch]{.title-ref} is used only for the simulation; This starts up [Omniorb]{.title-ref}\'s name server, which is not necessary with the real robot.

As mentioned, users don\'t directly launch neither of above; launch one of the followings instead:

• [hironx_ros_bridge_real.launch]{.title-ref} for the real robot.
• [hironx_ros_bridge_simulation.launch]{.title-ref} for the simulation.

Unit tests

There are multiple usecases for tests. So far with this package we aim two of them: stress tests and acceptance tests. They are separated into different [rostest]{.title-ref} files ([.test]{.title-ref}). Most of the files relevant to testing are available in [/test]{.title-ref} folder.

Stress tests

Test cases in these suites are relatively aggressive. Similar to the [.launch]{.title-ref}, [rostest]{.title-ref} ([.test]{.title-ref}) files are separated per [ROS]{.title-ref} and [hrpsys]{.title-ref} as follows:

• [test-hironx-ros-bridge.test]{.title-ref} tests [ROS]{.title-ref}-based commands via [ROS_Client]{.title-ref} client class. This internally launches [hironx_ros_bridge.launch]{.title-ref}.
• [test-hironx.test]{.title-ref} tests [hrpsys]{.title-ref}-based commands via [HIRONX]{.title-ref} client class. This launches [hironx_startup.launch]{.title-ref}.

NOTE: these stress tests are currently intended for the simulation only (see the reasoning[1]. Run on the REAL ROBOT WITH EXTRA CARE.

Acceptance tests

(TBD)

Config files

[hironx_ros_bridge/conf/*.in]{.title-ref} files are the template files that are used during compile process, and the generated files will be used by [hrpsys]{.title-ref}. ROS won\'t take use of those.
