# Matter RPC Verification Tool

## Overview

The Matter RPC verification tool can help verify if the Matter SDK (or Matter solution) has the required RPCs defined in the Matter RPC guidelines document, and offer a free stress test suite to help verify the SDK software quality and robustness.

With RPC implemented in the SDK (or the Matter solution), on-device automation testing becomes feasible, such as regression tests (ex: automatic execution every x hour) and stress tests (ex: 100 times device boot up test) can be easily enabled to catch bugs in an early stage.


## Features

1. Provides simple tests to verify if the SDK or the Matter solution contains all the required RPCs.
2. Provides stress test suites to test the quality and robustness of the SDK or the Matter solution.
3. Generates test result in compressed file for the above tests.


## Prerequisites

Make sure the host meets the following prerequisites before setting up the RPC tool.


### Host Minimum Requirements

1. Ubuntu LTS or any other Linux-based environments.
2. `Python3` installed with version `>=3.7`
3. Internet access.
4. Device debug interface (Typically UART over USB)


## Setup tool

1. Clone the repository at ```$HOME``` (or any desired place):
   ```
   $ cd $HOME
   $ git clone https://testsuite-smarthome-matter.googlesource.com/matter_rpc_verification
   ```

2. Change directory to the tool folder:
   ```
   $ cd $HOME/matter_rpc_verification/rpc_tool
   ```

3. Run the script to install packages:
   ```
   $ sh verify_rpc.sh build
   ```

   Or use the below command if you're running on Ubuntu:
   ```
   $ ./verify_rpc.sh build
   ```

## Usage

### Run verification test

To check if the SDK contains the required RPCs: `firmware_version` RPC, `reboot` RPC, `factory_reset` RPC, `descriptor cluster` RPC and `attribute_service` RPC.

1. Connect the device (flashed with the SDK you want to test) to the machine (the host where you installed this tool).

2. Inside the ```rpc_tool``` directory, run the script:
   ```
   $ sh verify_rpc.sh run
   ```

   Or use the below command if you're running on Ubuntu:
   ```
   $ ./verify_rpc.sh run
   ```

3. The tool will ask you to select the device to test, use arrow keys on the keyboard to select. (The tool only supports running 1 device at a time).

4. The tool will start testing the RPC functionality of the device, a successful test result looks like:

```
$ sh verify_rpc.sh run

A failing test result looks like (device is not responsive to some RPCs):

5. The test result will be compressed in a zip file ```(rpc_test_result-xxxx.zip)``` under the same directory, which contains the device's logs and test framework logs during execution.

```


### Run stress test

To run stress test suite on the SDK (or Matter solution), verifying the software quality and robustness.
The tool will run 50 iterations of each RPC tests.

1. Connect the device to the machine.

2. Inside the ```rpc_tool``` directory, run the script:
   ```
   $ sh verify_rpc.sh stress
   ```

   Or use the below command if you're running on Ubuntu:
   ```
   $ ./verify_rpc.sh stress
   ```

3. Select the device you want to test, then the tool will start stress testing. A successful test result looks like:

```
$ sh verify_rpc.sh stress

4. The stress test result will also be compressed as a zip file under the same directory.
