DigitalOutputGuard comprehensive test suite for ESP32-C6 DevKit-M-1.
This test suite provides comprehensive testing of the DigitalOutputGuard class including:
- RAII pattern verification and automatic cleanup
- GPIO state management and direction control
- Error handling and edge cases
- Move semantics and resource management
- Concurrent access patterns
- Performance and stress testing
Test Coverage Includes: ✓ Basic RAII functionality and automatic cleanup ✓ GPIO direction management and output mode enforcement ✓ State transitions (active/inactive) with proper error handling ✓ Constructor variants (reference and pointer) ✓ Move semantics and resource transfer ✓ Edge cases and error conditions ✓ Concurrent access with multiple tasks/threads ✓ Performance benchmarking and stress testing ✓ Cross-platform GPIO compatibility verification
PERFORMANCE TESTING AND EXPECTED OUTPUTS:
The performance tests measure critical timing characteristics of the DigitalOutputGuard:
- GUARD CREATION/DESTRUCTION PERFORMANCE:
- Tests: 1000 iterations of guard creation and destruction
- Measures: Complete RAII lifecycle timing
- Expected: < 100 μs per cycle (typically 2-5 μs on ESP32-C6)
- Output: "Guard creation/destruction: 1000 iterations in X.XX ms (avg: X.XX us per cycle)"
- Significance: Validates efficient object lifecycle management
- STATE TRANSITION PERFORMANCE:
- Tests: 1000 iterations of SetActive()/SetInactive() operations
- Measures: GPIO state change timing
- Expected: < 50 μs per operation (typically 1-3 μs on ESP32-C6)
- Output: "State transitions: 1000 iterations in X.XX ms (avg: X.XX us per operation)"
- Significance: Validates fast GPIO control without overhead
- STRESS TEST PERFORMANCE:
- Tests: 2000 iterations with 5 state changes per iteration across 3 GPIO pins
- Measures: Complex multi-GPIO scenario timing
- Expected: < 200 μs per iteration (typically 5-15 μs on ESP32-C6)
- Output: "Stress test: 2000 iterations in X.XX ms (avg: X.XX us per iteration)"
- Significance: Validates performance under realistic usage patterns
- CONCURRENT ACCESS PERFORMANCE:
- Tests: 3 concurrent tasks performing 100 operations each (300 total)
- Measures: Multi-threaded access timing and thread safety
- Expected: All operations complete successfully without race conditions
- Output: "DigitalOutputGuard concurrent access test successful: 300 operations"
- Significance: Validates thread-safe operation under concurrent load
PERFORMANCE INTERPRETATION:
Excellent Performance Indicators:
- Guard creation/destruction < 5 μs: Minimal RAII overhead
- State transitions < 3 μs: Direct GPIO control efficiency
- Stress test < 15 μs: Good scalability under load
- 100% concurrent test success: Robust thread safety
Performance Degradation Warnings:
- Guard creation/destruction > 50 μs: Potential memory allocation issues
- State transitions > 20 μs: GPIO driver inefficiency
- Stress test > 100 μs: Resource contention or memory fragmentation
- Concurrent test failures: Thread safety violations
