Checking compatibility with IoT Device Tester
IoT Device Tester (IDT) is a software client provided by AWS to assess device readiness for use in AWS IoT solutions. It assists developers by running a series of qualification tests to validate whether the destination system is ready to run the IoT Greengrass core software. Additionally, it runs a series of tests to prove that edge capabilities are already present, such as establishing MQTT connections to AWS and running ML models locally. IDT works for one device you are testing locally or scales up to run customized test suites against any number of device groups, so long as they are accessible over the network.
In the context of your role as the IoT architect at Home Base Solutions, you should use IDT to prove that your target edge device platform (in this case, platform refers to hardware and software) is capable of running the runtime orchestration tool of choice, IoT Greengrass. This pattern of using tools to prove compatibility...
