We, at least, need a robust VISA simulation backend going beyond what pyvisa-sim can offer.

bilderbuchi commented 6 years ago

Would it also make sense to extend pyvisa-sim with what you need, to not duplicate the wheel?

MatthieuDartiailh commented 6 years ago

I believe the yaml model based chosen for pyvisa-sim will prove quite limiting (difficulty to properly describe complex instrument accurately, or assemble some queries that group several settings for example). However I do believe that any VISA-simulation system should act as a pyvisa backend for sure.
