Collabora is attending FOSSCOMM 2018 at the University of Crete in Heraklion, Greece. Two Collabora engineers will be present, with Andrej Shadura giving a presentation on LAVA — a continuous integration system for deploying operating systems onto physical and virtual hardware for automated testing. LAVA powers the KernelCI project, enabling Linux kernel testing across diverse hardware without human intervention. Collabora also uses LAVA to test Linux distribution images.

## Questions this post answers

### What is LAVA and how does it relate to KernelCI?

LAVA is a continuous integration system for deploying operating systems onto physical and virtual hardware to run automated tests. It enables testing across multiple hardware platforms in real OS environments without human intervention. LAVA powers the KernelCI project's infrastructure, ensuring the Linux kernel is tested on as much hardware as possible. Collabora also uses it to test Linux distribution images.

_Teams running Linux kernel CI pipelines track tools like LAVA and KernelCI on daily.dev._
