Hello everyone, I wanted to ask everyone how most modules and applications are run/tested in edk2. I will be working on Adding Rust support for edk2 during GSoC and thus will probably have to do a lot of primitive testing. I did look at the EmulationPkg but didn't really understand how to use it. It simply drops me into gdb, although maybe that's what it is supposed to do?
There were also some GUI programs (VisualUefi) that can be used in windows, but since I am in Linux, they aren't much useful. I also found a tutorial to run it in a physical machine (https://tait.tech/2021/04/18/uefi-development-environment/), but that seems more for the final testing rather than testing during development. I have also tried using qemu for running applications, and I guess I was somewhat successful by using the script: `https://github.com/Richard-W/uefi-run` to test out uefi applications in qemu. However, it builds a FAT filesystem around the EFI application, so I was wondering if there was a better and simpler way to do it.
