These are only used (and only ever should be used) in testing images.
Move these out of the base distro images and only into images including
the ti-test packagegroup. Move the recipes themselves also over to
meta-arago-test.

This one may not work.  This assumes that you have ti-test intstalled 
(which not all images do).  And without ti-test in the image, then you 
cannot telnet to the board during test.

Maybe we should make a ti-test-core?  or ti-test-required?  And put 
things like this into that package and have it in ti-test as well.  Then 
we could change the image dependencies to require the new 
ti-test-required...  Would that work?

Why would you need to telnet onto a board to check on test if you are
not testing? If you are testing, then you would have ti-test.

Removing this from images that are not specifically meant for use by our
test automation is 100% intentional. Right now anyone can telnet into,
as root, without a password, all of our images. As much as we love to claim
no one should be using these images as a base for their production image,
absolutly every single customer is anyway. Which means we have a huge
security foot-gun here, and customers *will* end up shipping devices with
this massive security issue.

The base image is kept small to do network based tests.  They then 
install the ti-test package from the NAS.  But that assumes that the 
test framework could telnet to the board after boot in order to run 
commands...  That's the scenario I'm thinking of.

The best solution is to update all of the tests to use ssh, but that 
still means we are still hardcoding something in the file system to 
allow connecting in a bad way.

What if we also combined the above with a variable that we set in the 
local.conf during our builds, but is off by default.  And that varible 
override would make us include the ti-test-required.  We could even just 
add that setting to the local.conf...

There's a standard DEBUG_BUILD variable that can be reused for this. But...

It is a build-time condition, which means you end up with two separate builds 
for release and debugging. Do you test both? Or how can you ensure testing 
debug build also covers the release build properly?

The idea of only building release images and then installing test packages at 
run-time for testing was to mitigate the above ambiguity...

That said, I don't understand why it has to drive the run-time testing over 
telnet or ssh? Isn't the early boot testing already done over serial? Can the 
user-space Linux testing be done over serial as well?

I believe it is always best to test the same configuration we release, so I'd
like to avoid splitting the build. Instead simply looking to have a cleaner
split between images with testing packages and images without (all built with
the same configuration). Having the ti-test packages installed after by the
test infra itself is also a reasonable solution.

This would be much better. As Ryan pointed out, even SSH doesn't save us
completely as we would need to still inject login info and such. Serial at
least requires some level of physical access to the HW before getting root.
Not perfect, but so much better than open root exposed over network.
