Procedures

A procedure is a YAML file that defines your complete test sequence: what to test, how to test it, and what measurements to collect.

File

You can use any name for your procedure file as long as it ends in .yaml or .yml.

The file name doesn't affect functionality.

Name

You must set a unique name for your test procedure.

name: Battery Functional Test

TofuPilot uses this name to identify the procedure in test reports and the dashboard.

Version

You must specify a semantic version for your procedure.

name: Battery Functional Test
version: 1.0.0

TofuPilot records this version with each test result for traceability.

Description

You can add an optional description to document what your procedure tests.

name: Battery Functional Test
version: 1.0.0
description: Validates battery voltage, capacity, and charge cycles

TofuPilot displays this description in test reports and the procedure overview.

Dashboard ID

You can link this procedure to the TofuPilot Dashboard by adding the procedure ID from your Dashboard's procedure page.

name: Battery Functional Test
version: 1.0.0
description: Validates battery voltage, capacity, and charge cycles
id: 1cf7e59a-bf0a-11f0-b044-639a4e9293c8

This enables TofuPilot to automatically upload your local test reports to your Dashboard.
