A framework for benchmarking microchips.

Options for benchmarking

Mother Device w/Microchip

This software could run on a mother device e.g. Raspberry Pi. lb would then have a benchmark written (by you or maybe you get lucky and find one) for a specific chip under test (CUT) or a device under test (DUT).
Note: The benchmark written should be placed in the platform/benchmarks folder and follow the benchmark creation rules (need to be written – see examples in the python/benchmarks folder for now).

Benchmarking Single Board Computer

Right now the software is written in Python, so as long as the device is running Linux and has Python installed, you could fire benchmarks off using lb run MyBenchmark.

Goal

Build a framework that makes microchip and Single Board Computer (SBC) benchmarking easier.
Benchmark agnostic
Support as many devices and platforms as possible.

Inspiration
