QEMU

All tests are also run under KVM using QEMU on all supported architectures. QEMU is nice for troubleshooting without needing local hardware, as well as providing another data set to help determine when problems are board specific or architecture specific..

Arm FVP (Fixed Virtual Platforms)

Running at speeds comparable to the real hardware, Fixed Virtual Platforms (FVPs) are complete simulations of an Arm system, including processor, memory and peripherals. These are set out in a “programmer’s view”, which gives you a comprehensive model on which to build and test your software.

x86_64 Server

Tests are also run in both 64bit and 32bit mode on a typical x86_64 server for the purposes of providing a baseline for comparison.
