Windows emulator/simulator for S12Z devices - Unity testing

[lukaleban]

Hello,

Did anyone already try to set up a unit test framework on windows for S12Z devices?

My problem is that i cannot find an emulator to run S12Z compiled code on windows and i want to avoid using real hardware to perform unit tests on my code.

( I could compile it and run the code with GCC, but then the code is compiled with another compiler and the test lose its intention)

Any suggestion/solution would be appreciated

Best regards, Luka

Hello Luka,

Unfortunately, the CodeWarrior for the S12Z devices does not support full chip simulation.
I have tried to search some tools and the second most used IDE for S12Z is probably Cosmic:
http://www.cosmic-software.com/s12z_des.php

There is a ZAP debugger. The ZAP is available in 2 execution versions for the S12Z.

1. ZAP SIM Debugger with included processor Simulator

2. ZAP BDM debugger/flash programmer uses the S12Z on-chip background debug mode

I suppose that could be a possible option, but I don’t have any experience with such tools.

Best Regards,

Diana
