One of the key features of CTRL is that large desks (up to 16 monitors) can show different video streams, applications and remote desktops while being controlled from a single keyboard, mouse, and optionally a multi-touch touch screen. Although the video rendering is distributed, the input events are processed on and distributed by a single node of the desk. The distribution of those events between different rendering nodes needs to be validated for all types of events and gestures.
The component responsible for this distribution is called Input Manager. It is written in C, packaged into a Debian package and runs as a systemd service on all nodes.
Request:
Validate the Input Manager. This includes developing a comprehensive validation plan, writing tests, executing them from within a Docker container, and automating validation.
Technologies: C, Docker, Debian Linux, test frameworks, Jenkins, git, VS Code, Copilot
Key Responsibilities:
1. Determine the method of validation: Analyze the Input Manager to identify the best approach for validation. This includes understanding the program's functionality and identifying key areas for testing.
2. Validate: Create a detailed plan outlining the validation process, including the scope of testing, test cases, and expected outcomes.
3. Implement: Write and implement unit tests for the Input Manager. These tests will be performed inside a Docker container.
4. Automate: Integrate the validation into our current release process to avoid regressions in future releases.
5. Document: Prepare detailed reports on the validation process, including test cases, results, and recommendations for improvements.
Qualifications:
6. Enrolled in a Bachelor's or master's program in Computer Science, Informatics, Electronics, or a related field.
7. Strong knowledge of C programming language.
8. Experience with writing and executing unit tests.
9. Familiarity with Docker and containerized environments.
10. Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills.
11. Effective communication and teamwork abilities.
