The decorated function must take the:

Parameters

[in,out] context execution context (clean context at the start of a scenario)

Note: The decorated function can have arbitrary name, but the example tests use the name do().

Note: The match string can be the printf-style %-subsitution string (compatible with Python 2 and Python 3), or the new "f-string" (compatible only with Python 3).; The special string "@timestamp" (or "%timestamp") at the beginning of the match parameter will be automatically replaced with the current numerical value of the test sequence-counter.

Usage: expect("0000000001 USER+000 FindFunction_WhichIsBroken 0 78")

expect("@timestamp Trg-Done QS_RX_COMMAND")

Usage: loc_filter(IDS_ALL) # enables all QS-IDs

loc_filter(-IDS_ALL) # disables all QS-IDs

loc_filter(IDS_AO) # enables all active objcts

loc_filter(IDS_AO, -6) # enables all active objcts,

# but disables AO with priority 6

◆ probe()

qutest_dsl.probe	(		func,
			data )

sends a Test-Probe to the Target

Description: This simple command sends the Test Probe data to the Target. The Target collects these Test Probes preserving the order in which they were sent. Subsequently, whenever a given API is called inside the Target, it can obtain the Test-Probe by means of the QS_TEST_PROBE_DEF() macro. The QS_TEST_PROBE_DEF() macro returns the Test-Probes in the same order as they were received to the Target. If there are no more Test- Probes for a given API, the Test-Probe is initialized to zero.

Parameters

[in]	func	the name or raw address of a function
[in]	data	the data (uint32_t) for the Test-Probe

Note: All Test-Probes are cleared when the Target resets and also upon the start of a new test, even if this test does not reset the Target (NORESET tests).

Usage: probe("myFunction", 123)

Definition at line 899 of file qutest_dsl.py.

◆ peek()

Parameters

[in]	offset	offset [in bytes] from the start of the current_obj()
[in]	size	size of the data items (1, 2, or 4)
[in]	num	number of data items to peek

Usage: peek(0, 1, 10)

peek(8, 2, 4)

Parameters

[in]	msg	text message
[in]	dest	destination (SCREEN, TRACE), default both

◆ pack()

qutest_dsl.pack	(	format,

The arguments must match the values required by the [format](https://docs.python.org/3/library/struct.html#format-strings") exactly. The pack() command is typically used inside other QUTest commands to pack the binary event parameters or binary data for poke() and fill(). @param [in] format string @param [in] v1 one or more data elements requried by format @param [in] v2 one or more data elements requried by format @par Usage @code{py} dispatch("MY_SIG", pack("<B", 2)) poke(2, 2, pack("<HH", 0xB2C2, 0xD2E2))

expect("@timestamp COMMAND_B *") # expect the record from the target

last = last_rec().split() # <-- obtain the last record and split it

p1 = int(last[2]) # extract the expected parameter p1 (int)

s1 = last[3] # extract the expected string s1

p2 = int(last[4]) # extract the expected parameter p2 (int)

s2 = last[5] # extract the expected string s2

p3 = int(last[6]) # extract the expected parameter p3 (int)
