PyVISA-sim is a PyVISA backend that simulates a large part of the
"Virtual Instrument Software Architecture" (`VISA`_).
.
PyVISA started as a wrapper for the NI-VISA library and therefore you
need to install the National Instruments VISA library in your system.
This works most of the time, for most people. But sometimes you need to
test PyVISA without the physical devices or even without NI-VISA.
.
Starting from version 1.6, PyVISA allows one to use different backends.
These backends can be dynamically loaded. PyVISA-sim is one of such
backends. It implements most of the methods for Message Based
communication (Serial/USB/GPIB/Ethernet) in a simulated environment. The
behaviour of simulated devices can be controlled by a simple plain text
configuration file.
