I've had a go through the code except for the actual emulator class, but I wanted to give some initial feedback first. Generally, I think the code is doing a good job where it basically satisfies what needs to be done, with the exception of few unrelated cosmetic changes.
I have wished though if the emulator was implemented as an instance of a BpodCOMProtocol() class, however that's not currently possible as the current Bpod classes design uses inheritance when at many times composition would have been IMO a better choice.
One last thought: I wonder whether it'll be simpler to replace emulator.enabled with simply having self._emulator either as Emulator() or None.
I agree. Regarding CI: If these tests will be part of CI, your aforementioned comments are true, and we 'll also have a problem with the threaded emulator examples, where I showcase the manual override functionality. But, these tests were intended to demonstrate emulator functionality in the spirit of the examples under the function_examples and state_machine_examples directories. All these are not unit tests. All in all, I think that CI should not be configured to run these behavioral tests, but only unit tests, if they are added in the future (separate PR), which I totally recommend. |

If this is emulator mode, then this function would be called twice, once here and once in e652786#diff-c1bf0eb6016fc3d3327d1ee1ddb66991R75

What do you mean? It's called once in __init__() and once inside open(), which is not called if emulator mode is enabled.

Codacy analysis failures are of low severity. However, they should be dealt with in a future PR of their own. |
