Intel® Simics® simulator provides the ability to automate processes by using scripts that integrate a sequence of commands that can be executed to perform a specific task. The complexity of the task to automate can be as complex as fully configuring the virtual platform to start a simulation, but in general, any task that can be done manually through the Intel® Simics® simulator CLI can also be done through scripting.
The following sections describe some basic operations that can be done through scripting, either using native CLI commands or using Python language through an API library that is provided for this.
