Even though, this probably will never happen for FFAC, I would like to aggregate existing ressources to this.

FF-Braunschweig did something like this using labgrid:

(good talk about this: https://media.ccc.de/v/clt23-212-linux-systeme-automatisiert-auf-echter-hardware-testen)

alternatively a project created at qualcomm which seems to do similar things:
