+For the test with the HAL you need to install the [[getting_started:install_wrapper#simulator|]] and set the library path (see [[getting_started:deploy|]]) so that the simulator library can be found. Some safety system tests also need the HAL.
+===== Suppress Logger Output =====
+We do not want to mangle output from control blocks or from the safety system with output from the testing framework. If you test a component which uses the logger framework, make sure to set the default stream logger and to set 'cout' to 'failed' state. This will prevent output to be written to the log.
+<code cpp>
+std::cout.setstate(std::ios_base::badbit);
+eeros::logger::Logger::setDefaultStreamLogger(std::cout);
+</code>
+===== Running the Tests with a Script =====
+You can find a script under ''/scripts'' which builds eeros together with the simulator and runs all the tests.
