Hello!

I’m aware that the question I’m asking may have many correct answers since everything depends on the application and specific needs, but I’d like to know which Unit Testing tool you recommend. Ideally one that is easy to use, adapts well to different environments, and is robust.

Any recommendation is welcome, as I’m just about to start exploring this world.

Thanks!

Unit testing basically splits into two categories: Software in the loop and Hardware in the loop. You're likely interested in the latter.  This site offers some good ideas and learning materials:
