Application

The application, called sut (which is short for serial unit testing), is structured in the following sub commands:

list: List all available serial ports

monitor: Interactive serial communication monitor
run: Run a script on a serial port
verify: Verify a script can be parsed without failure

Test script language

The run and verify commands are used to work with the test script language to automate testing easily. For a complete syntax of the language see script.

# Example script

(Test One)              "h\n"  :  "Help"
(Test Two, repeat = 2) h"00FF" : h"00"
                       h"00af" : h"03"
