In this paper, we present a protocol to obtain photonic circuits that can be used in the implementation of contextuality tests on qutrit systems. The use of photonic integrated circuits offers several advantages for performing this type of task. These include scalability, accuracy, robustness, high-speed and efficient quantum measurements, precise control over the phase properties of photons by using electrically driven heaters to induce a thermo-optic phase shift and resistance to noise. We relate the average values that appear in the inequalities with the probability of photon counting in the circuit outputs and present a realizable configuration for the desired device, taking into account state-dependent and state-independent contextuality tests.
