Flashing Firmware

This example project shows the minimum necessary code to scan for advertising BLE devices and read the corresponding data. This example is designed to work with the HIL nRF53 demo project, which by default will advertise the DIS service with the name "EmbedOps HIL Demo Device".

NOTE: The find_devices function provided by the BLEInterface class is asynchronous and uses Python's built-in asyncio library. This requires a small amount of boilerplate code to exist in your test functions, which can be seen within the test_ble_scan function in this example project.

test_default.py - This file contains a test that searches for an advertising device with a specific name.
