@namxam Thank you for point this out. This was not intentional at all! I totally missed that I hadn't updated that part and forgot to remove the hack that overrode the :name
field when it wasn't ready.
I fixed it in #192.
Now the :name
field will properly reflect the way the backend was started. (In hindsight, I wish I chose a different word than :name
, but the change in #192 keeps non-test usage of backend_info/0
the same.)

Fixed in #192
It seems that with the 2.0 release, the old
info/0
has been replaced withbackend_info/0
. At the same time, the function now returnsCircuits.GPIO.CDev
as the current backend name instead of:stub
. Is this intended? Because the docs are still stating that it should be:stub
. See https://hexdocs.pm/circuits_gpio/readme.html#testing
