<div dir="auto">Wondering: is an arduino VM, or whatever similar, possible to unit-test NUT itself?

you got the wrong answer because of your question ;-)<br>
NUT does not have its own protocol, but rather speaks the various <br>
protocols of the manufacturers (blazer, belkin, mge, microdowell, riello <br>
and so on) or generic protocols (SNMP or usbid-ups).<br>

<br>
In my opinion it is very common, to communicate with the UPS Power <br>
Device by HID-compliant-protocol:It<br>

If you are interested in doing it yourself, you will find a lot of <br>
information on the internet:<br>
