Running tt-burnin

After building run tt-burnin to run the program.

TT-Burnin performs the following steps when running:

  1. Reset the boards on the host to get them into a known good state
  2. Start the power hungry workload on all boards
  3. Output a realtime telemetry command line widget to monitor the devices
  4. After user hits "enter" to stop the workload, another reset is performed to bring the boards back to known good state

A full run of burnin should look like -

$ tt-burnin
