Workload Automation (WA) is a framework for executing workloads and collecting measurements on Android and Linux devices. WA includes automation for nearly 50 workloads (mostly Android), some common instrumentation (ftrace, ARM Streamline, hwmon). A number of output formats are supported.

Workload Automation is designed primarily as a developer tool/framework to facilitate data driven development by providing a method of collecting measurements from a device in a repeatable way.

Workload Automation is highly extensible. Most of the concrete functionality is implemented via plug-ins, and it is easy to write new plug-ins to support new device types, workloads, instrumentation or output processing.

• Python 2.7
• Linux (should work on other Unixes, but untested)
• Latest Android SDK (ANDROID_HOME must be set) for Android devices, or
• SSH for Linux devices

To install:

python setup.py sdist
