Step 6: Testing the Device Interface

The IzoT NodeBuilder tool makes it easy to test your device by itself, as well as to integrate your
device into a network and test its interaction with other devices.

The first tool that you will typically use for testing is the IzoT Browser. The browser displays all the
input and output network variables and configuration properties for your device. You will typically
exercise the hardware or network variable inputs to your device and observe the hardware and network
outputs from your device.
