ESPx: https://gist.github.com/bshambaugh/384f5ba141c2acb16f8b37cb1e481149

Also try Ardunio CI, because there are issues getting Arduino code to test on the development machine otherwise.

This tutorial from AdaFruit will also help with automated CI for embedded code with Travis CI and GitHub: https://learn.adafruit.com/the-well-automated-arduino-library?view=all

This post helps with Integration with Gitlab and Arduino CI and bash scipts: https://codeblog.dotsandbrackets.com/gitlab-ci-esp32-arduino/

--> I think to test all of the websocket functions in https://github.com/bshambaugh/key-did-provider-p256Test-remote I need to write integration tests:

Alternatively you could try to refactor your code to use Rust:

(Embedded Rust on ESP32 - Juraj Michálek - Rust Linz November 2022)

https://github.com/esp-rs

I was unable to find any tests in their repositories and not all libraries. such as websockets, are supported.

but here is how to write tests in Rust: https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/ch11-01-writing-tests.html

Alternatively, try JavaScript?
https://www.moddable.com/
They actually do have tests:
https://github.com/Moddable-OpenSource/moddable/blob/public/tests/modules/crypt/ecdsa/testvectors.js

https://github.com/Moddable-OpenSource/iot-product-dev-book/blob/master/ch3-network/websocket-client/example.js
JavaScript is compiled down to C. Can I trust what I get?

This is bad. Arduino-CI is built around the Ardunio IDE.

Arduino-CI is built around the Arduino IDE, not platform.io. I liked Platform.io because I could break up the files in the IDE rather than rely on a single *.ino file.

There is pio ci, but is thought of as a hot key, not as a way to run tests?
