BLE test case Automation using nRF52840 DK as Peripheral Role

[Pranesh]

Hi Team,

Can I automate BLE test cases using nRF52840 DK ? If yes what is the procedure to follow.

My DUT supports central role and I want to make nRF52840 DK as peripheral role.

My Intention is to simulate remote device(peripheral role) using nRF52840 board and should have control on modifying the parameters. 

kindly let me know the possibility.

Thanks & Regards,

Hi,

With this (https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/26467/which-tool-to-use-for-scripting-nrf-connect-dev-board-using-python) Can I automate by changing the parameters ? for Ex. Setting adv interval to different value, modifying manufacture name, ATT write/read etc.... 

Thanks & Regards,

Yes, that is the intent

Hi David,

Is there any alternate way instead of using python language ?

Can it be done using C language ? If so please do let me know.

What is the best method/approach to Automate my test case's ? 

Thanks & Regards,

Hi Pranesh,

You can use the pc-ble-driver directly, instead of the python wrapper. That is C++ though, and not pain old C.
