\chapter{Abstract}
To systematically study and assess the privacy and security implications of IoTdevices, it is crucial to have a reliable method for conducting experiments and extracting meaningful data in a reproducible manner. This necessitates the development of a system —referred to as a "testbed"— that includes all the necessary tools, definitions, and automated environment setup required for conduction reproducible experiments on IoT devices.

In this project, I aim to design and implement a testbed that automates and standardizes the collection and processing of network data from IoT devices. The outcome of this project is a Python package that facilitates these tasks, providing a foundation for reproducible IoT device experiments.
