A device is represented in ANTA as a instance of a subclass of the [AntaDevice](../api/device.md#anta.device.AntaDevice) abstract class.
There are few abstract methods that needs to be implemented by child classes:

- The [collect()](../api/device.md#anta.device.AntaDevice.collect) coroutine is in charge of collecting outputs of [AntaCommand](../api/models.md#anta.models.AntaCommand) instances.
- The [refresh()](../api/device.md#anta.device.AntaDevice.refresh) coroutine is in charge of updating attributes of the [AntaDevice](../api/device.md#anta.device.AntaDevice) instance. These attributes are used by [AntaInventory](../api/inventory.md#anta.inventory.AntaInventory) to filter out unreachable devices or by [AntaTest](../api/models.md#anta.models.AntaTest) to skip devices based on their hardware models.
- The [collect()](../api/device.md#anta.device.AntaDevice.collect) coroutine is in charge of collecting outputs of [AntaCommand](../api/commands.md#anta.models.AntaCommand) instances.

These attributes are used by [AntaInventory](../api/inventory.md#anta.inventory.AntaInventory) to filter out unreachable devices or by [AntaTest](../api/anta_test.md#anta.models.AntaTest) to skip devices based on their hardware models.

The [copy()](../api/device.md#anta.device.AntaDevice.copy) coroutine is used to copy files to and from the device. It does not need to be implemented if tests are not using it.

The [AsyncEOSDevice](../api/device.md#anta.device.AsyncEOSDevice) class is an implementation of [AntaDevice](../api/device.md#anta.device.AntaDevice) for Arista EOS.
It uses the [aio-eapi](https://github.com/jeremyschulman/aio-eapi) eAPI client and the [AsyncSSH](https://github.com/ronf/asyncssh) library.

- The [_collect()](../api/device.md#anta.device.AsyncEOSDevice._collect) coroutine collects [AntaCommand](../api/models.md#anta.models.AntaCommand) outputs using eAPI.
- The [_collect()](../api/device.md#anta.device.AsyncEOSDevice._collect) coroutine collects [AntaCommand](../api/commands.md#anta.models.AntaCommand) outputs using eAPI.
- The [refresh()](../api/device.md#anta.device.AsyncEOSDevice.refresh) coroutine tries to open a TCP connection on the eAPI port and update the `is_online` attribute accordingly. If the TCP connection succeeds, it sends a `show version` command to gather the hardware model of the device and updates the `established` and `hw_model` attributes.
- The [copy()](../api/device.md#anta.device.AsyncEOSDevice.copy) coroutine copies files to and from the device using the SCP protocol.

This approach effectively disables caching for **ALL** commands sent to devices targeted by the `disable_cache` key.

3. For tests developers, caching can be disabled for a specific [`AntaCommand`](../api/models.md#anta.models.AntaCommand) or [`AntaTemplate`](../api/models.md#anta.models.AntaTemplate) by setting the `use_cache` attribute to `False`. That means the command output will always be collected on the device and therefore, never use caching.

- [test(self) -> None](../api/models.md#anta.models.AntaTest.test): This is an abstract method that **must** be implemented. It contains the test logic that can access the collected command outputs using the `instance_commands` instance attribute, access the test inputs using the `inputs` instance attribute and **must** set the `result` instance attribute accordingly. It must be implemented using the `AntaTest.anta_test` decorator that provides logging and will collect commands before executing the `test()` method.

## Test execution

Below is a high level description of the test execution flow in ANTA:

1. ANTA will parse the test catalog to get the list of [AntaTest](../api/models.md#anta.models.AntaTest) subclasses to instantiate and their associated input values. We consider a single [AntaTest](../api/models.md#anta.models.AntaTest) subclass in the following steps.

2. ANTA will instantiate the [AntaTest](../api/models.md#anta.models.AntaTest) subclass and a single device will be provided to the test instance. The `Input` model defined in the class will also be instantiated at this moment. If any [ValidationError](https://docs.pydantic.dev/latest/errors/errors/) is raised, the test execution will be stopped.

If any [ValidationError](https://docs.pydantic.dev/latest/errors/errors/) is raised, the test execution will be stopped.

3. If there is any [AntaTemplate](../api/models.md#anta.models.AntaTemplate) instance in the `commands` class attribute, [render()](../api/models.md#anta.models.AntaTest.render) will be called for every occurrence. At this moment, the `instance_commands` attribute has been initialized. If any rendering error occurs, the test execution will be stopped.

At this moment, the `instance_commands` attribute has been initialized. If any rendering error occurs, the test execution will be stopped.

4. The `AntaTest.anta_test` decorator will collect the commands from the device and update the `instance_commands` attribute with the outputs. If any collection error occurs, the test execution will be stopped.

5. The [test()](../api/models.md#anta.models.AntaTest.test) method is executed.
