class FAFTSequence(ServoTest):
    """
    The base class of Fully Automated Firmware Test Sequence.

    Many firmware tests require several reboot cycles and verify the resulted
    system states. To do that, an Autotest test case should detailly handle
    every action on each step. It makes the test case hard to read and many
    duplicated code. The base class FAFTSequence is to solve this problem.

    The actions of one reboot cycle is defined in a dict, namely FAFT_STEP.
    There are four functions in the FAFT_STEP dict:
        state_checker: a function to check the current is valid or not,
            returning True if valid, otherwise, False to break the whole
            test sequence.
        userspace_action: a function to describe the action ran in userspace.
        reboot_action: a function to do reboot, default: sync_and_warm_reboot.
        firmware_action: a function to describe the action ran after reboot.

    And configurations:
        install_deps_after_boot: if True, install the Autotest dependency after
             boot; otherwise, do nothing. It is for the cases of recovery mode
             test. The test boots a USB/SD image instead of an internal image.
             The previous installed Autotest dependency on the internal image
             is lost. So need to install it again.

    The default FAFT_STEP checks nothing in state_checker and does nothing in
    userspace_action and firmware_action. Its reboot_action is a hardware
    reboot. You can change the default FAFT_STEP by calling
    self.register_faft_template(FAFT_STEP).

    A FAFT test case consists of several FAFT_STEP's, namely FAFT_SEQUENCE.
    FAFT_SEQUENCE is an array of FAFT_STEP's. Any missing fields on FAFT_STEP
    fall back to default.

    In the run_once(), it should register and run FAFT_SEQUENCE like:
        def run_once(self):
            self.register_faft_sequence(FAFT_SEQUENCE)
            self.run_faft_sequnce()

    Note that in the last step, we only run state_checker. The
    userspace_action, reboot_action, and firmware_action are not executed.

    Attributes:
        _faft_template: The default FAFT_STEP of each step. The actions would
            be over-written if the registered FAFT_SEQUENCE is valid.
        _faft_sequence: The registered FAFT_SEQUENCE.
        _install_image_path: The URL or the path on the host to the Chrome OS
            test image to be installed.
        _firmware_update: Boolean. True if firmware update needed after
            installing the image.
