Open-source software for cyber-physical systems (CPS) often lacks robust testing involving robotic platforms, resulting in critical errors that remain undetected. This is especially challenging when multiple modules of CPS software are developed by various open-source contributors. To address this gap, we propose Automated CPS Testing (ACT) that performs automated, continuous testing of open-source software with its robotic platforms, integrated with the open-source infrastructure such as GitHub. We implement an ACT prototype and conduct a case study on an open-source CPS with an educational robotic platform to demonstrate its capabilities.
