Test development using CLI/python/RTT

[Tim Adu]

Hi,

I'd like to start developing automated tests for my custom NRF52840 board.

Currently I use the CLI library (with RTT backend) for communicating with the board.

Any ideas for how I could communicate with my board via a python script?

Thanks

Tim

Looks like it's working. I just have one issue with  the python environment (I use python 3.x). Did you test the scripts with python 2.x?

[Jørgen Holmefjord]

Yes, I tested with Python 2.7.15. I see from the release notes that pynrfjprog should support Python 3.6 at least, but you may have to modify the example to use it with Python 3.x.

Great! I igot it working with python 3.x. Need to tweak the script for my own tests, but the basic read and write from both ends works! I have enough to get me running. Thanks Jørgen!
