%X The Internet of Things has emerged as one of the key aspects for the future of the Wireless Sensor Networks and their impact on new applications in real environments. This concept poses new challenges in the implementation, testing and debugging of efficient, robust and reliable technologies under this paradigm, specially in a pre-deployment stage where HW-SW platform prototypes are to be optimized prior to their inclusion in actual deployments. In this work, the design and implementation of a complete testbed infrastructure as a support tool for improving the effectiveness and the applicability of sensor nodes to real systems is presented, focused on the modular architecture of the Cookie platform and aiming to help developers to integrate and improve the whole WSN operation to final real-world scenarios.
